Global oil markets are experiencing a period of significant uncertainty thanks to changing dynamics in oil supply and uncertainty in key consumer markets, including China. The volatility caused OPEC to close out 2016 with its first production cut in eight years. What does this new oil order mean for companies, consumers, and policymakers? How long will low prices continue? And has the structure of the global oil market changed in fundamental ways thanks to the advent of U.S. shale, a flexible source of low-cost oil outside of OPEC, and emerging competition to oil like electric vehicles?
Join EPIC as they host Jeff Currie, the global head of commodities research at Goldman Sachs, for a conversation on the economics and future prospects of global oil.
