Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on Tuesday that there were no discussions within the OPEC+ alliance about increasing oil production.
A statement published by the Russian government on the Telegram application quoted Novak as saying, “There is no discussion regarding increasing production within OPEC+.”
OPEC+ has implemented a series of production cuts since late 2022 in light of rising production from the United States and other non-member producers, and concerns about demand at a time when major economies are facing the repercussions of high interest rates.
The coalition, which includes the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and non-OPEC producers led by Russia, will meet on June 1 in Vienna to determine production policy.
The OPEC+ alliance is currently reducing production by 5.86 million barrels per day, equivalent to about 5.7 percent of global demand. The cuts include 3.66 million barrels per day from OPEC+ members, effective until the end of 2024, and voluntary cuts from some members of 2.2 million barrels per day, which expire at the end of June.
