Oil prices are set to remain under pressure in 2025 as U.S. tariffs and slowing economic growth in India and China weigh on demand, while OPEC+ pushes forward with plans to increase output, a Reuters poll showed. With global crude balances expected to widen by 300,000 barrels per day (bpd) this year, the market is teetering on the edge of surplus, said Florian Grunberger, senior analyst at Kpler. "This shift is driven by a weaker macroeconomic outlook in China and underperformance in Indian demand, which more than offset a modest improvement in European demand."
