The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) raised its Brent spot average price forecast for 2022, its January short-term energy outlook (STEO) has revealed.
The organization now sees Brent spot prices averaging $74.95 per barrel this year, which marks a $4.90 increase on its previous 2022 projection of $70.05, which was made in the EIA’s December STEO.
