Bahrain said on Monday it is committed to supporting an additional oil production cut of 600,000 bpd as recommended by OPEC+’s joint technical committee at a meeting last week.
“The proposed voluntary adjustment in production is recommended to counter the expected drop in oil demand, mainly in China, due to the coronavirus outbreak,” Sheikh Mohammed bin Khalifa, Bahrain’s oil minister, said in a statement.
