Eight key members of the OPEC+ alliance, including Iraq, have agreed to increase production starting in May 2025, citing healthier global market fundamentals and a positive outlook.At a virtual meeting held on 3 April 2025, the countries reviewed market conditions and confirmed they would implement a 411,000 barrels per day (bpd) production increase in May. This figure comprises three scheduled monthly increments, including the one originally planned for May, and is part of the gradual reversal of the 2.2 million bpd voluntary cuts announced in April and November 2023.In a statement, OPEC said this adjustment aligns with the decision made on 5 December 2024, reaffirmed on 3 March 2025, to return production gradually and flexibly. The group reiterated that these increases could be paused or reversed depending on evolving market dynamics. (ICE AMMAN)
