A record demand has pushed up oil priceswhile the production cuts of producing countries threaten to further reduce world supply.
According to a survey of Reuters made on Monday, the crude production of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) fell in July, after Saudi Arabia made an additional voluntary cut as part of the latest OPEC+ deal to support the market and a disruption curbed supply from Nigeria.
The OPEC It pumped 27.34 million barrels per day (bpd) this month, according to the survey, down 840,000 bpd from June. It is the lowest level since September 2021according to polls from Reuters.
Riyadh pledged to cut output by 1 million bpd in July as part of the OPEC+ deal from the previous month. The price of oil began to rebound in response by shooting up prices against the near $71 end of June.
According to analysts, Saudi Arabia is expected to extend its voluntary reduction of 1 million barrels per day beyond August. For its part, the OPEC+ oil cartel agreed last month to limit oil supplies until 2024.
The Saudi move was added to previous voluntary cuts announced by Riyadh and other OPEC+ members, and was added to reductions made under a group agreement in late 2022.
The increase in exports in Angola and Iraq capped the decline in OPEC output in July, according to the Reuters poll.
OPEC production remains below target by almost 1 million bpdpartly because Nigeria and Angola lack the capacity to pump as much as the agreed level.

The second largest decline occurred in Nigeriawhere Shell suspended the loading of Forcados crude due to a possible leak at the export terminal. Libyan production fell due to a brief interruption in some fields due to a protest.

It is based on transport data provided by external sources, flow data from Refinitiv Eikon, information from companies that track flows such as Petro-Logistics and Kpler, and information provided by sources from oil companies, OPEC and consultants.
