Current WTI crude futures trade near $85–87 per barrel as of late August 2026, well below the $147–158 nominal all-time highs recorded in 2008, with Brent similarly positioned around $94. Persistent supply disruptions through the Strait of Hormuz tied to the ongoing U.S.-Iran conflict have supported elevated prices earlier this year, yet recent inventory draws and partial flow normalization have tempered gains. EIA forecasts place Brent at an average of $85 per barrel for Q3 2026 before easing toward $78 by year-end, reflecting rebalancing amid robust U.S. exports and softer demand signals. Traders monitoring upcoming OPEC+ decisions, geopolitical de-escalation signals, and weekly inventory data note that sustained prices above $100 would require sharper supply shocks to approach record territory by December resolution.
