• OPEC+ Cuts Oil Supply

  An alliance of petroleum exporting countries and its allies, known as OPEC+, has agreed to slash oil output by 2 million barrels per day, starting in November. The cut, equal to 2% of the world's daily oil supply and the largest since April 2020, is meant to increase oil prices that have fallen due to recession fears. The global cost of a barrel has hovered around $90, down from $120 in June.

  
  OPEC+ (see 101) controls more than 40% of the world's oil production and previously has targeted a supply of 43.8 million barrels per day. The US, which is not a member of OPEC+ and has control over its own supply, opposed production cuts to help secure lower energy prices for US consumers. The US said it would release 10 million barrels of oil from its strategic petroleum reserve in November. 
  
  OPEC and its allies will meet again in December.

  The American Petroleum Institute (API) reported a surprise draw this week for crude oil of 1.770 million barrels, while analysts predicted a build of 333,000 barrels. U.S. crude inventories have grown by roughly 21 million barrels so far this year, according to API data, while the U.S. Strategic Petroleum Reserves fell by nearly eight times that figure.
  
  The draw comes even as the Department of Energy released 6.2 million barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserves in the week ending September 30 that left the SPR with 416.4 million barrels.
  
  In the week prior, the API reported a build in crude oil inventories of 4.150 million barrels after analysts had predicted a small build of 333,000 barrels.
