The probability has settled at 17.0%, reflecting unlikely odds. The market resolves to "Yes" if a current OPEC member—one that had not already declared an exit before the market opened—issues an official withdrawal announcement by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM Gulf Standard Time. Only formal government statements count; leaks or unofficial comments do not. Should official sources be unclear, a consensus of credible reporting will determine the outcome. Resolution hinges on the Dec 31, 2026 deadline. Any qualifying announcement before that cutoff settles the market as "Yes." The primary resolution source is the member state’s own government declaration, with credible media consensus acting as a fallback.

FAQ

Which countries are considered OPEC members for this market?

The market references OPEC membership as it stood at the time of market creation, excluding any country that had already announced its withdrawal before that point.

What qualifies as an official withdrawal announcement?

A formal statement from a member country’s government or designated authority. Unofficial remarks, leaks, or media speculation do not meet the threshold.

Does the withdrawal need to take effect by the end of 2026?

No. The market only requires an official announcement by December 31, 2026, 11:59 PM Gulf Standard Time, regardless of when the withdrawal becomes effective.

How is the market resolved if there are conflicting reports?

The primary source is official government information. If that is unavailable or ambiguous, a consensus of credible reporting will be used.
