Oil prices on Friday traded at nearly $86 a barrel, close to their highest since mid-April. <\/p>\n<p>Russia will also cut oil exports by 300,000 bpd in September, Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak said shortly after the Saudi announcement.<\/p>\n<p>OPEC member Algeria, which announced an additional voluntary cut of 20,000 bpd for August, is yet to decide whether to extend the cut into September, a source with knowledge of the matter told Reuters.<\/p>\n<p>OPEC+ agreed on a broad deal to limit supply into 2024 at its last policy meeting in June, and Saudi Arabia pledged a voluntary production cut for July that it extended to include August.<\/p>\n<p>The group&#8217;s output cuts, excluding the additional voluntary reductions from the three producers, amount to 3.66 million bpd, roughly 3.6% of global demand.<\/p>\n<p>The JMMC will hold its next meeting on Oct. 4.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>Read the full article <a href=\"https:\/\/www.investing.com\/news\/commodities-news\/opec-panel-meets-against-backdrop-of-a-stronger-oil-market-3145209\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Maha El Dahan, Ahmad Ghaddar and Alex Lawler DUBAI\/LONDON (Reuters) -An OPEC+ ministerial panel which met on Friday made no changes to the group&#8217;s current oil output policy after a Saudi decision to extend its voluntary production cut into September helped oil prices rally further.
