“There are two proposals to reduce the OPEC+ oil output by 10 and 11 million barrels per day (bpd),” Iranian Oil Minister Zangeneh said on Thursday, as reported by Reuters.
“OPEC+ oil cuts of 10-11 million bpd are apart from the cuts expected of countries such as Brazil, Norway and the United States,” Zanganeh added. “Iran, Venezuela and Libya are exempt from production cuts.”
