OPEC

Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC, /ˈpɛk/ OH-pek) is an intergovernmental organization of 13 petroleum-exporting nations, founded in 1960 by the first five members, and headquartered since 1965 in Vienna, Austria. The 13 countries account for 40% of global oil production and 73% of the world's "proven" oil reserves, making OPEC a major influence on global oil prices.

OPEC's stated mission is "to coordinate and unify the petroleum policies of its member countries and ensure the stabilization of oil markets, in order to secure an efficient, economic and regular supply of petroleum to consumers, a steady income to producers, and a fair return on capital for those investing in the petroleum industry." As of 2016, OPEC's members are Algeria, Angola, Ecuador, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia (the de facto leader), United Arab Emirates, and Venezuela. Two-thirds of OPEC's oil production and reserves are in its six Middle Eastern countries that surround the oil-rich Persian Gulf.

  • What Is OPEC?

    It’s been around for 60 years. It’s one of the world’s most influential nongovernmental institutions. And it affects billions of people, in one way or another. But much about OPEC — the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries — is (forgive the pun) opaque. Or at least it’s poorly understood. And so this seemed a good candidate for Grid’s regular “No Dumb Questions” series: “What is OPEC?” For one thing, it’s a six-decade-old organization, founded by a handful of major oil producers who felt that too much of the power and influence in the oil sector rested with big oil companies. A founding principle of OPEC was that the nations that sit atop great reserves of petroleum should have control over how much is brought up from the ground and shared in the global market.

  • Iran sanctions, OPEC cuts: Top oil market drivers for 2025

    Wall Street analysts are projecting lower oil (BZ=F, CL=F) prices in 2025, with forecasts ranging from $65 to $76 per barrel. Roth Capital Partners senior energy analyst Leo Mariani and S&P Global Commodity Insights head of global oil Richard Joswick join Catalysts to discuss their oil market outlooks. Mariani identifies three key factors driving the oil market heading into the new year: potential increased sanctions, modest improvements in Middle Eastern selling prices, and OPEC countries planning "to make up for that in the first part of '25 with some compensatory production cuts" to address previous overproduction. "The key thing is that non-OPEC plus production is growing faster than the demand for oil," Joswick explains. He adds, "Even if we have a cutback in some other areas, it's st...

A founding principle of OPEC was that the nations that sit atop great reserves of petroleum should have control over how much is brought up from the ground and shared in the global market. The group also said then — and still maintains — that it exists to ensure stability in the market for one of the world’s most important commodities. As Grid’s Global Editor Tom Nagorski notes, that’s not a universal view. As OPEC has grown and its influence has increased, many nations outside OPEC have been critical of the group, calling OPEC a “cartel,” and suggesting its members care more about power and profit than market stability. Meanwhile, President Joe Biden is only the latest on a long list of U.S. presidents to plead with OPEC leaders to boost production to bring down the price of gas. Biden went to Saudi Arabia last year to do just that; it didn’t work.

Wall Street analysts are projecting lower oil (BZ=F, CL=F) prices in 2025, with forecasts ranging from $65 to $76 per barrel. Roth Capital Partners senior energy analyst Leo Mariani and S&P Global Commodity Insights head of global oil Richard Joswick join Catalysts to discuss their oil market outlooks. Mariani identifies three key factors driving the oil market heading into the new year: potential increased sanctions, modest improvements in Middle Eastern selling prices, and OPEC countries planning "to make up for that in the first part of '25 with some compensatory production cuts" to address previous overproduction. "The key thing is that non-OPEC plus production is growing faster than the demand for oil," Joswick explains. He adds, "Even if we have a cutback in some other areas, it's still likely that we're going to have more supply coming onto the market than there is the demand for that crude oil, and that means inventories are likely to build," suggesting downward pressure on oil prices in the near term. Amid rising geopolitical tensions, Mariani emphasizes Iran as the key country to watch, noting the incoming Trump administration's focus on "significant economic sanctions" against the nation, warning "there could be a lot to lose" if these sanctions take effect. Watch the video above for their complete analysis of oil prices and the potential impact of Trump administration tariffs on the oil market.

OPEC

Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC, /ˈpɛk/ OH-pek) is an intergovernmental organization of 13 petroleum-exporting nations, founded in 1960 by the first five members, and headquartered since 1965 in Vienna, Austria. The 13 countries account for 40% of global oil production and 73% of the world's "proven" oil reserves, making OPEC a major influence on global oil prices.

OPEC's stated mission is "to coordinate and unify the petroleum policies of its member countries and ensure the stabilization of oil markets, in order to secure an efficient, economic and regular supply of petroleum to consumers, a steady income to producers, and a fair return on capital for those investing in the petroleum industry." As of 2016, OPEC's members are Algeria, Angola, Ecuador, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Libya, Nigeria, Qatar, Saudi Arabia (the de facto leader), United Arab Emirates, and Venezuela. Two-thirds of OPEC's oil production and reserves are in its six Middle Eastern countries that surround the oil-rich Persian Gulf.
