Global oil prices could hit $100 a barrel: How it will impact the world

Firstpost  

The increasing oil prices complicates the global fight against inflation and feeds Russia’s war chest. That poses problems for politicians as well as the people having to spend more to get to work, transport the world’s goods or harvest fields The year 2023 is seeing a major increase in crude oil prices, with Brent Crude rising by nearly 19 per cent and others following suit and causing a headache for various governments. Oil prices can be volatile, and while they might briefly top $100 in the coming months, they’re unlikely to stay there, said Jorge Leon, senior vice president for oil markets at Rystad Energy. Leon said the Saudis will review the cuts each month — and could add barrels back if prices spike to levels that could seriously worsen inflation in countries buying oil. Costlier oil feeds through to higher prices for gasoline and diesel, especially in the US, where roughly half the pump price reflects the cost of crude — the rest is marketing, taxes and other costs.
