Several OPEC+ countries announced on Sunday their decisions to extend their voluntary oil production cuts until the end of 2024.
Thus, Saudi Arabia extends production cuts by 500,000 barrels a day, Iraq – by 211,000 barrels a day, the United Arab Emirates – by 144,000 barrels a day, Kuwait – by 128,000 barrels a day, Kazakhstan – by 78,000 barrels a day, Algeria – by 48,000 barrels a day, Oman – by 40,000 barrels a day, and Gabon – by 8,000 barrels a day.

On Sunday, OPEC+ nations agreed the level of oil production in 2024 at 40.46 million barrels a day. According to TASS calculations, OPEC+ countries will cut daily oil production by 1.393 barrels. The next OPEC+ ministerial meeting will be held in Vienna on November 26.
