The Committee will continue to closely assess market conditions. Building on the strong cohesion between OPEC and participating non-OPEC oil-producing countries, the Committee noted the willingness of the DoC countries to address market developments and their readiness to take additional measures at any time.
The next meeting of the JMMC (53rd) is scheduled for 03 April 2024.
