Oil Inventory Sounds Alarm! Goldman Sachs Warns Taiwan and Other Regions to Be Hit


Release time:

May 06,2026

The Iran conflict is roiling the global energy market. According to the latest research report by Goldman Sachs analysts, global oil inventories are plummeting rapidly, nearing an eight-year low. Shortages of specific oil products and supply crunches in certain countries have become particularly acute. Naphtha, jet fuel and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG), as well as markets including South Africa, India, Thailand and Taiwan, have been flagged as facing elevated shortage risks.
 
As reported by Business Insider, Goldman Sachs released a research report on the 4th, stating that the number of days global total oil inventories can cover worldwide demand has dropped to 101 days, and is projected to fall further to 98 days by the end of May — the lowest level in nearly eight years. Overall, the global market is not yet facing an outright oil shortage and has not hit the warning threshold. However, bottlenecks such as limited refining capacity, trade disruptions and export restrictions mean surplus supply in one market cannot necessarily offset shortages in others. As a result, the pace of inventory drawdowns for specific oil products and regions remains concerning, and the risk of fuel shortages should not be underestimated.
 
The report notes that certain refined products, including jet fuel, naphtha, and liquefied petroleum gas used in plastics and chemical manufacturing, are already in short supply. Goldman Sachs analysts pointed out that markets such as South Africa, India, Thailand and Taiwan will bear the brunt of the impact.
