As the oil market awaits 2018, here are the five factors to watch:

- Growing supplies from outside Opec, led by US shale output, remain the biggest question mark
The Financial Times expand on each of these, it may be gated but if not, worth a quick read while we await some Asia action: Five main drivers of oil prices in the coming year
