OPEC+ agrees in principle another large oil output hike: Report

AUSTRIA, AUG 4 – Eight OPEC+ nations reversed a 2.2 million barrel per day cut from 2023 by increasing production 547,000 barrels per day in September to regain market share amid resilient prices.

  • On Sunday, eight OPEC+ member nations agreed to raise their collective oil output by approximately half a million barrels daily starting in September to undo previous production cuts.
  • The agreement follows phased output hikes since April and responds to strong global economic signals and low oil inventories.
  • Analysts noted that oil prices remain near $70 per barrel despite increased supply, helped by tight stocks and stockpiling in China.
  • Jorge Leon noted that OPEC+ has successfully undone its biggest production reduction without causing a sharp decline in prices, demonstrating the market's ability to handle increased output.
  • The group plans to meet again on September 7 to consider reinstating about 1.65 million barrels per day in voluntary cuts amid geopolitical tensions.
