Algeria has confirmed that it will maintain its oil production at 1.007 million barrels per day for November. This decision was made during a virtual meeting of the OPEC+ countries that had previously made voluntary adjustments to their production levels. The meeting, which took place on Sunday, was attended by ministers from Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kuwait, Oman, and Russia.
The ministers in charge of petroleum from these seven countries agreed to maintain their current production levels. Algeria's production level remains at 1.007 million barrels per day for November. This move is part of the efforts of OPEC+ countries to ensure stability in the international oil market. The decision was made after examining recent developments in the global oil market.
The meeting was attended by Algeria's Minister of State and Minister of Hydrocarbons, Mohamed Arkab, along with his counterparts from the other six countries. This decision reflects the commitment of these countries to continue coordinating their production levels within the OPEC+ framework. The stability of the oil market remains a key concern for these producers.
The 68th meeting of the Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee (JMMC) also took place, with representatives from Algeria, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, Nigeria, Venezuela, Kazakhstan, and Russia in attendance.
