Russian news outlet Interfax had the comments from Novak on Tuesday:
“We have nearly reached it [the required level of oil output within OPEC+]. We are close to it. We have somewhat ‘underperformed’ the target at full volume, so to speak,” said that the Energy Ministry would send the OPEC Secretariat a schedule for offsetting the barrels produced above the quota going forward.
Countries that have not reduced production enough as per the OPEC+ agreements will offset those volumes until the end of September 2025.
More here on the numbers.
