Vienna, Austria, 10 September 2024--The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) will launch the 18th edition of its World Oil Outlook (WOO) at ROG.e 2024 in Rio de Janeiro, Federative Republic of Brazil.

First published in 2007, the WOO, one of the Organization’s flagship publications, provides an in-depth review and analysis of the global oil and energy industries and offers assessments of various scenarios in their medium- and long-term development. The publication also presents insights into key relevant issues, such as supply and demand, investment, the potential impact of policies and sustainable development, and a detailed analysis of the challenges and opportunities facing the global oil and energy industries.

HE Al Ghais said: “The World Oil Outlook has been a key reference tool for the industry since its first edition published in 2007, serving as a testament to the research quality of the Organization and those involved in producing the publication, including officials from OPEC Member Countries. By producing this annual publication, OPEC reaffirms its unwavering commitment to enhancing data transparency and facilitating knowledge sharing in support of data-driven decision-making.”
