JPMorgan analysts Natasha Kaneva said that Russia’s strong fiscal position means the nation can cut daily crude production by 5,000,000 barrels without causing economic damage.
The results could prove disastrous for much of the rest of the world. Analysts wrote that a 3 million-barrel reduction in daily crude oil supplies would drive benchmark London crude prices up to $190.
A worst-case scenario, which could see crude prices rise to $380 per barrel, could lead to a “stratospheric,” $380 crude.

Putin signed a decree to seize Shell’s Russian gas project rights. This could make it more difficult for the British energy giant Shell to invest in Russia. According to the Kremlin, the rights to Sakhalin-2 were to be transferred to a Russian company. This was due to threats to national security and national interests.
Shareholders have one month to decide whether or not they want to take stakes in the company. They were also warned that they might not receive full compensation if they do so.
