OPEC+, which combines OPEC countries and allies such as Russia, has refused to increase production to lower oil prices despite pressure from major consumers, including the United States, to help the world economy.

The sources explained that the cut could exceed one million barrels per day. One of the sources suggested that the cuts could also include a further voluntary reduction in production by Saudi Arabia.
