Earlier this week the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) kept its forecast for 2012 oil demand unchanged, while warning that Europe's could reduce international demand. OPEC warns that if Europe's turmoil "were to worsen, the effect on the oil market could be seen not only through a further decline in oil demand in Europe, but also with spillover effects on oil demand in the emerging economies."
OPEC maintained its prediction for production outside the organization in 2012 at 53.1 million barrels a day, Bloomberg reports. This represents an annual increase of about 700,000 barrels a day, driven by growth in the United States and Canada.
