On July 7, 2025, the Brent crude oil price stood at 69.62 U.S. dollars per barrel, compared to 67.93 U.S. dollars for WTI oil and 69.92 U.S. dollars for the OPEC basket. Prices rose slightly that week, following signs of an increase in demand.Europe's Brent crude oil, the U.S. WTI crude oil, and OPEC's basket are three of the most important benchmarks used by traders as reference for oil and gasoline prices. Lowest ever oil prices during coronavirus pandemic In 2020, the coronavirus pandemic resulted in crude oil prices hitting a major slump as oil demand drastically declined following lockdowns and travel restrictions. Initial outlooks and uncertainty surrounding the course of the pandemic brought about a disagreement between two of the largest oil producers, Russia and Saudi Arabia, in early March. Bilateral talks between global oil producers ended in agreement on April 13th, with promises to cut petroleum output and hopes rising that these might help stabilize the oil price in the coming weeks. However, with storage facilities and oil tankers quickly filling up, fears grew over where to store excess oil, leading to benchmark prices seeing record negative prices between April 20 and April 22, 2020. How crude oil prices are determined As with most commodities, crude oil prices are impacted by supply and demand, as well as inventories and market sentiment. However, as oil is most often traded in future contracts (whereby a contract is agreed upon, while the product delivery will follow in the next two to three months), market speculation is one of the principal determinants for oil prices. Traders make conclusions on how production output and consumer demand will likely develop over the coming months, leaving room for uncertainty. Spot prices differ from futures in so far as they reflect the current market price of a commodity.

According to a 2025 survey, oil producers operating in the Permian region needed WTI oil prices to amount to a minimum of ** U.S. dollars per barrel in order to profitably drill a new well. This compared to a minimum breakeven price of ** U.S. dollars per barrel for existing wells. The monthly average WTI oil price ranged between ** and ** U.S. dollars per barrel around the time of the survey. Most productive oil basins Operators in shale basins have the lowest average breakeven prices for new wells. However, when it comes to existing wells, operators in the Permian (Delaware) basin can afford even lower oil prices. The Permian basin, located in Texas and New Mexico, accounts for the greatest U.S. oil production output of any region. In 2024, production in the Permian reached nearly *********** barrels per day - more than **** times the amount extracted from the neighboring Eagle Ford rock formation. Texas is leading oil producing state With both regions located in Texas, it is not surprising that this is also the leading crude oil producing U.S. state. Nearly two billion barrels worth of crude oil were extracted in Texas per year, far more than any other state. Texas is home to a total of five major oil and gas formations.

Global oil and gas production companies have gone through significant turbulence for most of the period. The pandemic and its accompanying lockdowns severely disrupted producers as revenue fell double digits and the industry's largest market, the transportation sector, was limited. This was quickly reversed as the economy opened and supply outpaced demand, causing prices to skyrocket. High prices, accompanied by swelling production, led to surging revenue. While prices eventually came back down late in the period, they remained high. Overall revenue has pushed up at a CAGR of 6.0% to $4.2 trillion through the end of 2024, including a slight 1.9% uptick in 2024 alone. Profit also surged as purchase costs came down. Emerging markets in BRIC nations, Southeast Asia and Africa continue to drive growth because of rapid industrialization and population increases, heightening the need for crude oil, natural gas and related downstream products. Even so, the gradual shift toward renewable energy poses challenges for producers, as many countries have implemented regulations and incentives to promote clean energy use. Geopolitical tensions and the uncertainties stemming from the global pandemic underscore the importance of diversifying supply sources to ensure energy security. Overall, industry revenue is set to push down at a CAGR of 3.6% to $3.5 trillion through the end of 2029. The bulk of this period will be highlighted by more efforts in oil and gas exploration and production in emerging markets, potentially transforming these regions into major global producers. Even so, the excess supply of oil and gas, combined with the push for sustainability, will drive prices down, leading to revenue contractions.
