WTI Crude Oil Supported by OPEC+ Output Delay & Strong Inventory DataWTI Crude Oil futures found support yesterday after reports surfaced that OPEC+ is contemplating output hike delays. Eight of the group’s members are scheduled to start unwinding covid era voluntary production cuts starting in December. The unwind would add 180k bpd of supply in December, around 1mln bpd by May, and 2.5mln bpd by the end of 2025. The output hikes were originally scheduled to start in October but were delayed to account for global economic weakness, mainly out of China. Yesterday’s EIA data also provided fodder for the bulls as counter-seasonal draws signaled physical market strength. Inventory data as follows [thousand bbls]: Crude Oil: -515 vs +1,805 estimate
