# OPEC+ Agrees to 100,000 bpd Oil Production Increase for September

> OPEC+ agreed to raise its targeted production by 100,000 barrels per day for September. The group's decision follows a request from US President Biden to boost output after Russia's invasion of Ukraine. Many members, including Russia, have lagged on quotas, and only Saudi Arabia and the UAE have substantial spare capacity.

## Why it matters

The increase equals about 0.1% of global demand, so the price impact is small. The limited spare capacity keeps crude prices supported despite the announced increase.
