THERE was no surprise that a top meeting of the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies’ (Opec+) ministers opted to keep output policy unchanged since the global crude oil market is almost exactly where the exporter group wants it.
Opec+’s ministerial committee on Wednesday kept the current output targets but did note that some countries had been over-producing and had undertaken to increase compliance.
