In December 2024, Brent crude oil prices reached at $73.86 per barrel, the lowest monthly average in the previous two years.
This reduction was mostly due to lower oil demand in China, which was impacted by the country’s economic slowdown and growing use of electric vehicles.
Additionally, OPEC announcements about increases the future supply, added to the downward pressure on prices.
Despite these factors, the market remained cautious due to ongoing geopolitical tensions and uncertainty about global economic development.
