Abstract - The oil price has fallen by 40% in recent months, as a result of increasing oil supply, and is expected to be in the range of USD 70 - 80 per barrel in 2015.
- The global economy is set to benefit, as are oil importing regions such as Europe and Asia.
- Oil exporting countries like Brazil, Russia and Middle Eastern exporters will experience pressure on income.
- Energy consuming sectors such as the chemicals, transport and agricultural sectors will benefit, while oil producers stand to lose from the lower price.
