Context
U.S. crude oil production rose by 1.2 million barrels per day in 2014, the largest volume increase since recordkeeping began in 1900, mostly from tight oil in North Dakota, Texas and New Mexico.[1] EIA's December 2014 outlook linked the price decline to that growth together with weakening outlooks for the global economy and oil demand.[2]
On November 27, 2014, OPEC left its production target of 30 million barrels per day unchanged, and Brent fell by more than 10% afterward; Saudi Arabia indicated it would maintain its export market share rather than cut production.[2]
Global oil inventories grew in both 2014 and 2015, and EIA said that oversupply contributed to the lowest monthly prices since 2004. It also expected Iran to raise production once sanctions on its oil sector were suspended.[3]
Brent bottomed at $26.01 on Jan 20, 2016 and recovered to $50.73 by Jun 8, 2016. On dates when both were published, Brent averaged +$2.93 against WTI over the window, ranging from −$2.67 to +$13.74. The largest one-day moves in WTI were a rise of $3.97 on Aug 27, 2015 and a fall of $7.76 on Nov 28, 2014, each measured against the previous published price. WTI was at or above $100 on 42 published days in the window.
Adjusted with CPI-U to September 2026 dollars, WTI's high in the window was $152.61 (Jun 20, 2014) and its lowest positive price $37.22 (Feb 11, 2016). Annual averages: 2014 $93.17 (−4.9% on 2013); 2015 $48.66 (−47.8% on 2014); 2016 $43.29 (−11.0% on 2015).
