Russia is “fully committed” to agreements reached during the OPEC+ meeting, Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said on Friday.
The consortium of the world’s largest oil powers announced following discussions earlier in the day that no recommendations were introduced to change the current oil output quotas.
Members of the energy group agreed in June to cut oil outputs to 40.463 million barrels per day throughout 2024.
Saudi Arabia announced earlier this week extending through September its 1 million bpd voluntary oil production cut adopted during the June meeting.
Meanwhile, Novak said Moscow will continue to voluntarily cut oil export in September by 300,000 bpd – down from 650,000 bpd announced last June.
Oil production in Russia currently sits at 9.5 million bpd.
“We also agreed [within the OPEC+] that we will closely monitor the situation, since the state of the global market today largely depends on the uncertainties that we are seeing, economic recovery, high interest rates in many countries, high inflation levels,” Novak said, noting that the global oil market remains stable and within the acceptable demand-to-supply ratio.
