Two weeks before the OPEC + meeting in June, Russia and Saudi Arabia agreed to closely coordinate actions to reduce oil production.

Negotiations began between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Saudi Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, after Russia announced its plans to begin easing production cuts in July,

The talks halted US oil in the range $ 30-35.

Online meetings of OPEC + members are scheduled on June 9-10, to discuss whether they should increase their record cuts in oil production or, conversely, begin to reduce the cuts.

"This is certainly a positive development," said Mohammad Darwazah, an analyst at Medley Global Advisors. "It portends good prospects for the next OPEC + meeting, in which Saudi Arabia and Russia will be on the same side," he added.

Russia and Saudi Arabia carried the largest share of production cuts in the OPEC + agreement, committing to reduce production by more than what was required. Saudi Arabia's actions were then followed by other OPEC members, such as Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates. Meanwhile, Russia, before doing the same thing on Tuesday, Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said that the country will first analyze the world oil market before deciding on possible changes to the OPEC + agreement.

On Wednesday, the Kremlin said that Putin and Bin Salman exchanged views on the global energy market, prioritizing the importance of "joint efforts" and agreed that both country's energy ministries would closely coordinate their actions.
