Recently, under the combined effect of many factors such as the extension of OPEC+ production cuts, the seasonal recovery of demand in the second quarter, the reduction of diesel exports by Russia, and the intensification of geopolitical risks, crude oil prices ushered in six consecutive rises, and the price of U.S. and global benchmark crude oil hit the highest point since October last year.

As of the close of April 5, light crude oil futures for May delivery on the New York Mercantile Exchange rose 32 cents, or 0.37%, to settle at $86.91 a barrel. London Brent crude for June delivery rose 52 cents, or 0.57%, to settle at $91.17 a barrel.

In a short period of time, the supply pattern of the crude oil market is changing, on the one hand, Opec + will extend the crude oil production reduction policy to the second quarter of this year, and on the other hand, the geopolitical dispute is permeating to the oil-producing countries, if the situation continues to expand, then the support for the oil market will be further.

"If the geopolitical situation does not ease by the end of the second quarter, then with the arrival of the crude oil consumption season, the international oil price will sprint to the $100 / barrel mark." Xi Jiarui predicted.
