- Abstract
This article considers the features of the world oil market development in modern conditions. The world oil markets significantly affected by uneconomic factors in particular pricing processes, primarily political ones. Economists predicted the beginning of the global economic crisis in 2020. The coronavirus pandemic has also been added to the main and traditional causes of the economic crisis, such as cyclicity of economy, declining of economic growth rates and falling of financial market indicators, which has affected all spheres of society. The impact of coronavirus on the world oil market is determined by the correlation- regression analysis: the price of oil has acquired a high negative dependence upon the number of newly infected with coronavirus; the dependence of price of Brent oil on the number of new infected COVID-19 is semilogarithmic. This article defines the significant impact of the coronavirus pandemic on the world oil market, which is expressed in a decrease in demand, a reduction in production rates and will primarily affect oil-producing countries that are forced to transform their economies in these conditions.
