Geopolitical factors, including unrest in Libya and production cuts from Iraq and Russia, are tightening oil supply, potentially increasing prices and profit margins for oil companies. Although the industry is shifting toward cleaner fuels, oil remains a vital energy source, and varying forecasts on this transition create near-term investment opportunities.
