Brent crude oil prices hiked to US$76-US$77 per barrel, and estimating a geopolitical risk premium of about US$10 per barrel, Goldman Sachs released a research report saying. Although Goldman Sachs' base scenario is that Brent crude oil will fall to around US$60 per barrel in 4Q25 assuming no supply disruptions, the broker also considered a scenario of reduced Iranian supply, forecasting that Brent crude oil prices could surge slightly above US$90 per barrel. This premium seems reasonable in the tail risk scenario where regional oil production or transportation is negatively impacted.Related NewsM Stanley Expects Spikes in CN Fuel Export Quotas Next Yr to Achieve 'Anti-involution', Boost Refining Margins
