But market watchers still expect oil to remain firm, with average prices significantly higher than last year. In a market update on Monday morning, Fitch Solutions Country Risk and Industry Research said it has revised its forecast for Brent, which it expects to average US$100 a barrel this year and US$90 a barrel next year- up from US$82 and US$83 previously. "While sanctions have largely shied away from the oil and gas trade, as we had anticipated, export disruptions look to be more substantial and more sustained than we had previously forecast, not least due to 'self-sanctioning' by major Western oil companies, which are under pressure to disengage from Moscow," the research firm said. "As a result, we decreased our Russian oil production forecast this month, impacting global supply... This has largely erased the global surplus we had expected to emerge this year, signalling a tighter market balance and more persistent upward price pressures."
