OPEC+ is meeting this week to decide on production.

Oil prices have also been affected by the stronger dollar.
A final decision on the size of the cuts won’t be made until ministers meet, the delegates said.
Brent crude soared above $125 a barrel following Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February.
It’s since dropped to $85, cutting into the profits that Saudi Arabia, Russia, the United Arab Emirates and other members of the coalition have enjoyed.
