Oil Steady Near $57 Amid Supply-Demand Balance
OPEC+ Output Caps Gains Despite China Demand Recovery
|
Oil prices remain steady around $56.97 per barrel today, reflecting a balance between supply pressures and demand expectations. On one hand, OPEC+ continues to pump additional barrels into the market following recent production increases, raising concerns about a potential global supply surplus in the final quarter of the year. |

Conversely, data from China, the world’s largest oil importer, showed gradual improvement in industrial and energy demand — providing partial support to prices and preventing deeper declines.
From a technical perspective, the $57.30 level acts as the first resistance zone for any upward attempts, while $56.20 remains a key short-term support level to maintain stability.
Outlook:
Prices are expected to stay within a narrow range between $56 and $58, with a slight downside bias if supply abundance and weak buying momentum persist.
