LONDON (Reuters) – The following table shows crude output by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in millions of barrels per day (bpd) in February and January, according to a Reuters survey published on Thursday.
OPEC and allies, together known as OPEC+, announced a new round of voluntary cuts on Nov. 30 to be made in the first quarter of 2024. As part of this, Saudi Arabia extended its own 1 million bpd cut – first made in July 2023 – until the end of the first quarter.
The figures in the first and second columns of the table are in millions of barrels per day. Totals are rounded.
January output was not revised.
