“Even if these cuts provide a floor to prices they will not be able to boost prices given the scale of inventory builds we are still staring at,” Energy Aspects analyst Virendra Chauhan said, referring to fast-filling storage amid the slide in demand from end-users. “This 9.7 million bpd ‘headline’ deal represents a 12.4 million bpd cut from claimed April OPEC+ production but an only 7.2 million bpd cut from 1Q20 average production levels,” Goldman Sachs analysts said.However, energy analysts at FGE expect oil stockpiles in developed nations to grow in the second quarter to levels last seen in 1982.
