OPEC+ said seven member producers will add 188,000 barrels per day to their June output quota, even as the Strait of Hormuz, a chokepoint for roughly 20% of global oil, remains closed. The increase is largely symbolic while the shipping route is blocked, keeping physical supply tight.
OPEC+ is close to agreeing another oil output increase, with the UAE excluded from this round, sources say. More supply from the group could push crude prices lower, affecting fuel costs and energy revenues globally.
The UAE has announced its withdrawal from OPEC, citing national interests. The departure weakens the oil cartel's production coordination at a time of regional conflict involving Iran. A less unified OPEC may struggle to defend oil price levels.
The UAE has announced it is leaving Opec and Opec+, the producer groups that coordinate global oil output. The exit removes one of the Gulf's largest producers from supply agreements, raising questions about the bloc's ability to manage output. Markets will watch for any UAE production increase and a Saudi response.
The UAE announced it will permanently exit OPEC on May 1 after an official review of its oil production policy. Losing one of its largest producers weakens OPEC's ability to control global oil supply and prices. The exit could allow the UAE to pump oil freely beyond current cartel-imposed limits.
