Saudi Arabia has cut oil output by a minimum of 2mln BPD to c. 8mln BPD, according to sources.

What it means

Saudi Arabia's decision to reduce oil output by at least 2 million barrels per day to approximately 8 million BPD signals a significant tightening in supply. This cut may support higher oil prices, particularly for WTI, as it addresses ongoing concerns about oversupply and boosts inflationary pressures in the energy sector.
