• OPEC Produces ($0-60/B): Including all potential OPEC supply, production with a breakeven oil price (Brent) below $60/B can supply nearly all required oil through 2050 assuming a 2°C ‘oil-specific’ carbon budget (and all required oil through at least 2035 in the IEA New Policies Scenario). This is the scenario where OPEC does not constrain production to protect prices.

This is therefore the area to which prices would need to fall to curtail new investment outside OPEC. Such a price would imply that OPEC had decided to abandon its policy of defending price and moved to defending market share (as it has done previously, for example in 1986). (CONTINUED - 327 WORDS)
