According the Energy Information Administration's (EIA) latest energy outlook, while world energy consumption is expected to grow in 2010, it will only be adding 1.1 million barrels of consumption and will remain below its past peak consumption.
This tepid demand growth will butt against production increases for many non OPEC oil producers, which means that OPEC will be under substantial pressure to limit its output, and obviously will.
Yet this will require massive discipline for the member nations given that OPEC's surplus crude oil production capacity will actually rise in 2010, after a huge increase is surplus capacity during 2009. 2010 will see the worst OPEC overcapacity situation since 2002.....Let's go to the charts!.
