OPEC+ agreed to raise oil production by 547,000 barrels per day for September to regain market share and address supply concerns linked to Russia. This marks a full reversal of output cuts plus a separate increase for the UAE. Pressure from the U.S. on India to stop Russian oil purchases was noted.
