Economies such as China, Brazil, Russia and India whose rapid growth and expansion created an unquenchable thirst for oil initially, began to slow after 2010. USA and Canada started exporting oil due to high oil prices, cut their oil imports, which further increased the supply of oil. Saudi Arabia's continued to supply crude oil after the fall of Oil prices in 2014 in a bid to maintain their market share with the rest of the world.
