OPEC+ agreed total production curbs of about 2.2 million bpd from eight members at its November 30 meeting. The package includes an extension of Saudi Arabia's 1 million bpd voluntary cut and Russia's 300,000 bpd reduction, bringing total pledged cuts to roughly 5 million bpd.
Extended voluntary cuts tighten crude supply for the first quarter of 2024, which supports crude prices and raises the cost of diesel and fuel inputs for feed producers and transport.
