The Future Cost of Oil in Three Scenarios

Could world oil prices hit $380 per barrel in 2050?

It’s possible, according to one scenario published in Lukoil’s recent Global Energy Perspectives to 2050 report. The report considered three scenarios for the global energy sector – Evolution, Equilibrium and Transformation.

Taking into account a carbon price, oil prices will vary greatly depending the scenario, the report outlined. High carbon prices and inflation were projected to lead to $380 per barrel oil prices in the Transformation scenario, with much more modest prices in the Equilibrium and Evolution scenarios forecasted to come in at $197 per barrel and $128 per barrel, respectively.
