OPEC and its allies signaled they will keep existing output cuts at their meeting next week. An OPEC advisory committee in Vienna heard the market would balance in 2020 if current production levels are maintained, and did not discuss deeper cuts.
Industry executives meeting Russia's energy minister in Moscow also showed no interest in changing the supply deal.
