In this article, we discuss the energy stocks gaining this week.

The S&P Energy index posted gains of 1.68% between February 6 and February 13, against a decline of 1.39% by the overall S&P 500 during the period.

The International Energy Agency released its Oil Market Report on February 12, forecasting the global oil demand to rise by 850 kb/d in 2026, up from 770 kb/d last year. The agency predicts that the non‑OECD countries will account for the entire increase, with China leading the pack. On the other hand, the global oil supply is expected to surge by 2.4 mb/d to 108.6 mb/d this year, with growth evenly divided between OPEC+ and non-OPEC+ producers.

A portion of this output growth is expected to come from Venezuela, especially after U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright visited the country last week to assess its oil industry. The high-level visit was aimed at reviving the country’s dilapidated energy industry, while putting the US investors at the front of the line.

The White House also relaxed sanctions on Venezuela’s energy sector and issued two general licenses that allow global energy players to operate oil and gas projects in the country and for other companies to negotiate contracts to attract fresh investment. Mr. Wright revealed that Venezuela’s oil sales have already surpassed $1 billion since the ouster of Maduro and would hit another $5 billion in the coming months.
