Based on analytical reviews, volatility will continue to persist in commodity markets, especially in oil markets, in 2019. Oil prices are projected to rise slightly in the near future and will average about $70.0 per barrel, compared with $71.0 in 2018. At the same time, the risks to oil and other commodity prices are mainly reduced, given the slowdown in demand growth and increased supply. Despite volatility, prices are expected to be slightly different from their current indicators by the end of 2019. The above indicates the relevance of the chosen topic, since oil for Kazakhstan is a natural resource that has an impact on the state economy as a whole.

An analysis is conducted of the impact of various factors on the development of world oil markets and their volatile characteristics.
