The effects of both changes on price is as follows:
1. The Greater Effect - change in demand due to the falling price of natural gas (a substitute for oil)
As price of natural gas, a substitute for oil, falls, demand for oil will fall pushing oil producers to respond by cutting crude oil prices in a bid to sustain demand and prevent its fall. <em>Thus, the effect is a price fall</em>.
2. The Lesser Effect - change in supply due to disruptions in oil-well operations in the Middle East
Due to supply disruptions which will result is a reduction in supply, the price of oil will tend to increase as consumers buy more of a commodity in less supply. <em>Thus, the effect on price is a rise</em>.
There, since the greater effect is a price fall, and the lesser effect is a price rise, equilibrium price is expected to fall.
