** Prices are calculated through lineal interpolation from IEA perspectives in the WEO2016. Nominal prices assume inflation of 2% per year from 2015. IEA forecasts OECD Crude oil import costs, which was 2.1 US$/Bbl below Brent in average in the 2006-2015 period. In this regard, 2.1 US$/Bbl is added to IEA estimation in nominal terms to obtain Brent perspectives.

Main messages
Uncertain oil price outlook, but most forecaster agree on an increasing oil
price path
Demand data support high sensitivity to prices and continuous growth
Conventional production depend on investments and investment on
operating cash flows and cash flows on prices, these facts implies higher
prices are needed
Unconventional revolution is marching on as the same productivity speed
than in the past. It will need higher prices and also be aware of the
cyclality of cost evolution
Finally, most oil exporters have an incentive to improve its finals account
through production agreements
