Oil prices slipped on Tuesday after a U.S. government agency forecast steady U.S. oil demand in 2025 while lifting its forecast for supply.
Declines were limited by new U.S. sanctions on Russian oil exports to India and China.
Brent futures fell $1.09, or 1.35%, to settle at $79.92 a barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude finished at $77.50 a barrel, down $1.32, or 1.67%.
On Monday, prices jumped 2% after the U.S. Treasury Department on Friday imposed sanctions on Gazprom Neft and Surgutneftegas as well as 183 vessels that transport oil as part of Russia's so-called shadow fleet of tankers.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Energy Information Administration said the country's oil demand would remain steady at 20.5 million barrels per day (bpd) in 2025 and 2026, with domestic oil output rising to 13.55 million bpd, an increase from the agency's previous forecast of 13.52 million bpd for this year.
