Brent Weakens Amid Global Supply Surge
Wednesday, 7 January 2026 10:39 WIB | MARKET ANALYSIS |

Brent oil prices have fallen relatively as the market begins to consider the possibility of an end to the Russia-Ukraine conflict. If the war subsides, Russian oil exports, previously restricted by sanctions, could re-enter the market, adding to the already abundant global supply. This situation is pressuring prices even though global demand remains stable.

On the other hand, other geopolitical tensions, such as the situation in Venezuela, remain a factor influencing the market. However, the potential for increased supply from countries like Venezuela and Russia is keeping investors cautious. The combination of large supply constraints and long-term geopolitical uncertainty keeps Brent prices volatile but relatively stable. (az)
The oil price at the time of this analysis was $59.98
