Global oil prices could fall to $40–50 per barrel by late 2025 or early 2026, according to the Foreign Intelligence Service of Ukraine.
According to the intelligence agency, the current price per barrel is $66–68, but the market is already experiencing a new price war that threatens further declines in quotations.
The main driver of the drop is the collapse of agreements within OPEC+. Saudi Arabia is significantly increasing production, creating an oversupply in the market.
Here’s the translation of your text into natural, formal English for a news context, keeping the original structure:
At the same time, shale oil exporters are increasing drilling and production despite low prices, intensifying pressure on the market.
Additional risks to prices come from the slowdown in China’s economy — one of the largest oil consumers.
Moreover, rising exports of raw materials from Brazil, Guyana, and Norway are further increasing the oversupply.
Unlike previous years, geopolitical risks now have little impact on oil prices, indicating the formation of a new supply and demand balance.
If this trend continues, the Russian fund predicts a “shock” oil price range of $40–50 per barrel, which will significantly affect global economies and the budgets of exporting countries.
Russian economy
It is worth noting that Russia’s largest exporters have cut their planned rail shipment volumes for 2025.
Freight volumes, which reached a 15-year low in 2024, serve as a useful indicator of the state of the manufacturing sector in Russia’s export-oriented economy.
Meanwhile, Reuters earlier reported, citing sources, that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is increasingly concerned about the challenges facing Russia’s wartime economy.

Let’s hope that we will see $40/barrel of oil very soon. Such low prices, coupled with Ukrainian-style sanctions, will make the shithole collapse even faster.
That fucktard Witless may have prompted the Alaska shitshow with false information:
Anton Shekhovtsov :
“Witkoff is not simply treacherous:
Speculation surrounds next week’s planned Ukraine peace summit in Alaska between US President Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin, following reports that Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff may have misinterpreted key Russian positions as concessions, according to BILD.
The Kremlin still demands full control over Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, Kherson, and Crimea before any ceasefire, while only offering limited “sectoral” pauses in fighting, and refusing to halt its offensive despite US proposals to lift sanctions and explore economic cooperation.
Witkoff’s confusion over territorial terms has reportedly alarmed Ukrainian and German officials who view him as ill-prepared and prone to misunderstandings in high-stakes negotiations.”
Who is Anton Shekhovtsov?
This administration is not only exceedingly evil, but highly incompetent to boot.
“Reuters earlier reported, citing sources, that Russian dictator Vladimir Putin is increasingly concerned about the challenges facing Russia’s wartime economy.”
We all know what the solution is, but putler has placed himself in a difficult situation. He can’t end the war and justify the destruction of the economy for very few gains. He can’t carry on the war either. His last ditch effort is hoping Ukraine will give him what his army can’t take, then rebuild to attack again.
I hope that Ukraine will continue getting enough support to carry on with the war and destroy a lot more oil refineries and depots to finish off the mafia economy.
We all know why Putler wants this air ceasefire, because he can’t stop the destruction of his oil refineries. I expect TACO will attempt to get Ukraine to stop attacking oil refineries, but it’s too late now.
“I expect TACO will attempt to get Ukraine to stop attacking oil refineries…”
Maybe that’s why there is a dying spree of refineries lately.
Mafia land are humiliating TACO over this meeting in Alaska. Twitter is flooded with posts about Alaska being Russian. If a POTUS is allowing himself and the US to be humiliated, it means putler has something huge on TACO. What is more disappointing is the reaction from the US politicians, of course TACO let this happen while Congress is on holiday, ensuring no awkward questions.
Taco has made the swamp in Washington the largest on this planet.
If they are Ukrainian drones, the US can do nothing to stop them.
