(Bloomberg) — Oil has the potential to reach $100 a barrel by late this quarter after OPEC+ announced steep crude output cuts, according to Amrita Sen, the chief oil analyst at Energy Aspects.

Her view has been that the second half of the year was going to “very bullish,” pushing oil to $100 as long as the global economy was resilient. Now, that move higher could happen sooner, including late in the second quarter, she said in an interview on Bloomberg Television. 

Sen’s view is one of the more bullish calls out there. While Sunday’s surprise OPEC+ production cuts prompted some analysts to revive estimates for $100 oil, Sen’s scenario of prices possibly reaching that target this quarter is faster than many other outlooks. Goldman Sachs Group Inc (NYSE:). raised its forecast for in 2024 to $100 a barrel from $97. Brent rallied more than 8% on Monday to as high as $86.44.

In China, demand is slowly recovering, Sen said. 

“I think the East’s ability to withstand high oil prices is much, much greater than the West,” she said.
