TORONTO, Sept. 8 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- CIBC World Markets today raised its forecast for oil prices (West Texas Intermediate) for next year from US$65 per barrel to an average price of US$84 per barrel. In a study released today, Jeff Rubin, Chief Economist and Chief Strategist at CIBC World Markets, said we are likely to see US$100 per barrel oil sooner than later. The CIBC World Markets study predicts that oil prices will average US$93 per barrel in 2007 with prices expected to reach or exceed US$100 per barrel by the fourth quarter of that year. The September Monthly Indicators report notes that both supply and demand factors are pushing oil prices higher. The devastation to both oilfields and oil industry infrastructure from Hurricane Katrina will not only impact current oil production but future production as well. The study expects that planned expansion of production in the Gulf of Mexico over the next two years is likely to be halved; cutting off nearly 300,000 barrels per day of potential future supply. The setbacks to planned expansion of Gulf of Mexico capacity comes on the heels of stagnant production in Russia and tapped out capacity in OPEC. The CIBC World Markets study also notes that world oil demand is less price sensitive than was earlier assumed, requiring larger than originally anticipated price increases to rein in future demand growth. The study links the declining sensitivity of world oil demand to price and to the growing importance of Chinese energy consumption. "While the full economic impact of expected oil price increases is difficult to gauge," says Mr. Rubin, "at a minimum, the economic drag from higher energy prices should quickly cap rising short-term interest rates in both Canada and the Untied States. Apart from possibly one more rate hike on either side of the border, Mr. Rubin noted that we are likely at a cyclical peak in short-term interest rates thanks to soaring oil prices."
