Baku, Azerbaijan, March 18
By Sara Israfilbayova - Trend:
Until the next OPEC+ meeting, oil reserves in the world will begin to fall, but not so much to require to take some steps, Minister of Energy, Industry and Mineral Resources of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Khalid Abdulaziz Al-Falih said at a press conference on the results of the 13th meeting of the OPEC/non-OPEC Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee (JMMC) in Baku, Trend reports.
There are more than three months left until the next meeting, so it’s impossible to say something exact now, the minister said, adding that he leaves Baku with the confidence that the market is moving in the right direction.
