OPEC+ will meet this week. There are rumors

Bloomberg News quoted people familiar with the matter as saying that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies (OPEC+) will not meet in advance on the 4th, and the meeting scheduled for next week may not be held unless all countries First agree to fulfill the previously promised production reduction amount.

At the beginning of this week, there was news that the OPEC+ meeting date was changed to June 4 so that some oil-producing countries can arrange oil sales activities in late June.

However, affected by the news of changes in the OPEC+ meeting, Brent crude oil, which once rose above US$40 per barrel on the 3rd, turned from red to black. Previously, oil prices had risen from the lows in April in recent days, driven by the gradual lifting of epidemic blockade measures in major economies. International oil prices closed up more than 3% on the 2nd, closing at the highest level since March 6.

OPEC+ originally planned to reduce production by 9.7 million barrels in April and May, but then reduced the amount of production cuts in June. However, after the international oil price recently returned to US$35 per barrel, some OPEC+ members proposed to maintain a production cut of 9.7 million barrels until the end of the year to maintain the stability of the oil market.

Reuters quoted sources as reporting that OPEC+’s two largest oil producers, Saudi Arabia and Russia, have finalized a preliminary agreement to extend the current production cuts for one month and put strong pressure on all countries to effectively implement their production reduction commitments.

Unlike the March meeting before the price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia, analysts believe that OPEC+’s mood is now more positive, and leaders of all major oil producing countries agree on the need to continue cooperation. The analysis also believes that it is possible to extend the current OPEC+ reduction level until the end of 2020.
