Oil-producing countries within the OPEC+ alliance, including Saudi Arabia and Russia, have decided to deepen their voluntary crude supply cuts in an effort to stabilize the global oil market. The latest round of announcements from OPEC+ members involves extending reductions of approximately 2.2 million barrels per day.
Saudi Arabia, a key player in the alliance, has committed to extending its existing cut of 1 million barrels per day until the end of the second quarter of 2024. This decision, confirmed by the Saudi Press Agency citing a source from the Energy Ministry, will keep the kingdom's crude production at around 9 million barrels per day through June.
