Report: OPEC+ panel recommends provisional 600,000 bpd oil output cut

MOSCOW, Feb 6 (PRIME) -- An OPEC+ technical panel has agreed to recommend a provisional additional cut in oil output of 600,000 barrels per day (bpd) as it awaits Russia’s final position on the proposal, Reuters reported on Thursday, citing two OPEC+ sources.

“The recommendation is for a cut of 600,000 barrels per day. Russia has asked for more time for consultations,” one of the sources said.

The OPEC+ ministers have yet to decide on whether to bring forward their upcoming policy meeting to February from early March, the sources said.
