To Reignite The Economy, OPEC+ Reached An Agreement This Sunday (18) To Undo All Cuts Made At The Beginning Of The Pandemic, Meaning That Oil Barrel Production Will Return To Full Steam, Being Able To Double Over The Next Two Years To 400 Thousand Barrels Of Oil Per Day

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies led by Russia (OPEC+) reached an agreement to increase oil production over the next two years from current levels. Thus, the cartel and other producers committed to undoing all cuts made since the beginning of the coronavirus pandemic as demand for oil and gas recovers and economies heat up.

Increase of 400 Thousand Barrels In Oil Production

Commodity market was anxious for the decision made by OPEC+ this Sunday (18). The agreement allows for an increase in oil supply of 400 thousand barrels per day by the end of 2022 and will come into effect in August.

The figure came in line with widespread expectations from investors and analysts. OPEC+ will reassess market conditions in the last semester. Negotiations were suspended after the United Arab Emirates refused to sign off on expanding oil barrel production without permission to pump more of their own product within the group’s quota system.

In early 2020, when the first signs of the pandemic emerged in the West, OPEC+ cut oil production by 9.7 million barrels per day, equivalent to about 10% of the demand relative to 2019.

Since then, supply has been restored by about 4 million barrels, and the agreement made on Sunday stipulates that the remaining cuts will be restored by the end of next year.

According to the cartel’s projections, global oil demand will increase by 3.3 million barrels per day, to an average of 99.9 million per day, in 2021, considering pre-pandemic demand levels.

For the CEO of Dubai-based consulting firm Qamar Energy, Robin Mills, the outcome is essential for consumers in the short term. Nevertheless, the executive and other analysts estimate that price pressures will continue in response to the warming economies. According to Giovanni Stuanovo, commodity analyst at Swiss bank UBS, the market will tighten this summer.
