Crude stocks under scrutiny

The markets are awaiting signals regarding demand

The energy markets will be looking forward to the release of U.S. crude oil inventory data on Wednesday, September 10, 2025, at 6:30 PM UAE time. Preliminary forecasts suggest a likelihood of a limited decrease in inventories compared to the strong declines observed in recent weeks. This scenario reflects a dual picture: A relative slowdown in the pace of withdrawals alongside stable supplies. Continued U.S. demand for crude but at a weaker pace, particularly amid signs of a slowdown in industrial economic activity.

The impact of data on the markets will be sensitive:

• A decline in inventories beyond expectations could support oil prices and bolster bets on consumption strength.
• A weaker than expected decline or an increase in inventories may put pressure on prices and support the view of slowing growth.

Analysts believe that the report will gain additional importance this time, as it is released ahead of the anticipated OPEC+ meeting, which may witness discussions regarding production levels for the fourth quarter of the year.
