Analysts expect the oil market to remain tight due to low supply, worsened by Western sanctions against Russia

Oil prices drifted higher on Wednesday, anticipating a report of low US oil stocks, while expectations of solid demand in the upcoming driving season also lent support.

Analysts polled by Reuters expect data for last week to show another drawdown of US crude inventories, though gasoline and distillates stocks could edge higher. The US Energy Information Administration will report last week’s stock levels at 10:30am EDT on Wednesday. The CEO of global commodities trader Trafigura said oil prices could soon hit $150 a barrel and go higher this year, with demand destruction likely by the end of the year.
