Iraq will deliver 80% of its ledged output cuts in June but will compensate later, Saudi Arabia’s energy minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman told a news conference on Monday, per Reuters.
Iraq’s July-September oil output cuts will be higher than its quota, bin Salman further explained. “We have a full pledge from Iraq on compliance for the next two years.”
