OPEC Output Sees Modest Gains Amid Ongoing Shipping Disruptions
OPEC's crude oil production continued to recover in July, with an increase of 1.16 million barrels per day to an average of 19.44 million barrels per day.
The gains were largely driven by Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, and Iraq, which accounted for almost all of the increase.
However, the group's output remains below pre-war levels due to disrupted shipping traffic through the Persian Gulf and the Red Sea.
