Arab oil faces higher ‘break-even’ price
Surge in domestic spending strains a fragile energy mark

HONG KONG (MarketWatch) — A sharp rise in domestic government spending by Saudi Arabia and other key Arab oil exporters threatens to upset the mutually beneficial relationship they’ve kept for decades with energy consumers worldwide.

A wave of popular protests sweeping the Middle East and North Africa has toppled regimes in Tunisia and Egypt and led to civil war in Libya. It has also forced the region’s rulers to launch programs worth tens of billions of dollars in attempts to redress public grievances.

The spending spree is likely to be felt far beyond their borders. To cover the cost, energy producers have to squeeze more money from their oil fields. That means raising their “break-even” price — the amount of money they must make from each barrel of oil — to avoid fiscal deficits.

Failure to fund these new commitments could lead to domestic spending cuts, which could stoke social and political unrest, or jeopardize their fiscal soundness by requiring they take on more national debt or draw down sovereign wealth funds accumulated over the years.

<b>$100 a barrel

Iradian said the global economy could cope with oil prices in the $80 to $100-a-barrel range, but would be hurt if prices held at $130 to $140 “for a long period of time.”

He’s not the only person with the view that $100 a barrel is something consumers can handle. </b>

Charles Seville, a director in the sovereign debt team of Fitch Ratings, wrote in emailed comments that the world economy is adjusting to higher oil prices, and that $100 oil is “less of a shock second time around than it was in 2008,” when Nymex crude-oil prices peaked at $146 a barrel.
