Today's speech by the chairman of OPEC did not affect the market situation.
Suheil Al-Mazrui said that the cartel and other oil-producing countries in 2017 complied to a deal to reduce production by 107%, and an important role in this was assigned to Russia. It should be noted that in November 2017, OPEC extended the agreement on reducing total oil production by 1.8 million barrels a day. The chairman of OPEC also said that the balance of the oil market is still not restored and the cartel is trying to establish cooperation with countries that are not part of OPEC.
