We still model stock draws in Q3, but expect oil price softness to continue as the market&#8217;s focus shifts to H1 2024 when balances look in surplus,&#8221; the bank said in a note. <\/p>\n<p>Benchmark  LCOc1 was trading around $75.79 a barrel, as economic slowdown concerns erased some gains made after Saudi Arabia and Russia announced fresh output curbs. O\/R <\/p>\n<p>Those reductions were in addition to cuts by members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and allies led by Russia. <\/p>\n<p>However, inventory drawdowns in the third quarter led by the OPEC cuts could keep Brent supported in the mid-$70 levels, the bank said. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Much depends on additional voluntary cuts from key OPEC members, but in our base case scenario the market loosens in Q4 and turns into surplus in H1 2024.&#8221; <\/p>\n<p>Additionally, if  futures CLc1 go to the mid-to-low $60s, &#8220;around 30% of shale wells would be &#8216;out of the money&#8217;,&#8221; likely driving a reduction in U.S. output growth, and in turn, providing further support to Brent prices in the high $60s, the Morgan Stanley analysts added. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investing.com\/news\/commodities-news\/morgan-stanley-cuts-oil-price-forecasts-sees-surplus-in-h1-2024-3119932\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Reuters) &#8211; Morgan Stanley (NYSE:) on Wednesday lowered its oil price forecasts, predicting a market surplus in the first half of 2024 with non-OPEC supply growing faster than demand next year.
