Recently, Brent crude oil futures and NYMEX WTI crude oil futures both broke through the 100 US dollars/barrel mark, and the main domestic crude oil futures contract price also reached 800 yuan/barrel. According to the data, at the time of press release on September 11, the main continuous contracts for Brent crude oil futures and WTI crude oil futures had accumulated a cumulative increase of more than 17% since September. Industry insiders said that this round of rising international oil prices is not just short-term market speculation about geographical risks. As the US-Iran conflict spills over, shipping channels are blocked, and global crude oil inventories continue to fall, market attention is gradually shifting from “sentiment premium” to “supply gap.” Against the backdrop of increased supply-side uncertainty, international oil prices are likely to remain strong in the short term.
