Increased backwardation for both WTI and Brent, tight physical supply of oil, resilient demand despite Omicron concerns, rallying physical and future markets, growing geo-political tensions and the inability of some OPEC+ countries to increase production are the major drivers for the increasing oil price.
2020 witnessed a deep dip in crude oil prices following the COVID 19 global restrictions, work from home business models, limited travel and tourism. Following this, oil storage saw a steep demand for their services. However, as vaccinations rolled out, and restrictions were eased globally, demand for crude oil began surging but there is a strain on supply(owing to numerous reasons- geopolitical tensions, low investments since years, OPEC's output decisions, natural catastrophes, problems related to workforce and the like).
Almost all industry players(oil storage terminals) engage in the storage of various products ranging from natural gas to crude products to biofuels. This way, companies ensure diversification of activities and remain competitive. With the common understanding that fossil fuels have a long runway, and an energy growth forecast of 20% by 2040 oil storage remains a key service in the midstream sector.
The global oil storage market is classified into various market segments based on
1. The material of the storage tank--Steel storage tanks,Carbon Steel Storage tanks, Fiberglass reinforced Plastic storage tanks and Others.
2. The type of storage tank-- Open top tank, Fixed roof tank, Floating roof tank, and Others.
As of March 2021, the USA has reported 66,12,55,000 barrels of shell storage capacity for crude oil alone. When other residual fuel oils, propane, natural gas and the like are also considered, the USA has a recorded shell storage capacity of 1,92,33,53,000 barrels. According to EIA(Energy Information Administration), as of 14th Jan 2022, 413.8 million barrels of crude is stocked in the USA.
The IEA(International Energy Agency) forecasts greater oil production in 2022 and 2023 to profit from the current demand and rising oil prices. Many countries have fossil reserves and there is a sense of urgency as these nations race to extract oil and gas before the world transitions to renewables. In the midst of such a situation, global oil inventories could rise by 0.5 million barrels per day in 2022 to 0.6 million barrels per day in 2023. However, any future novel variant could slow the recovery in global oil consumption. So, watching out for GDPs of non-OECD countries whose economic growth translates to high oil consumption is crucial.
