The corona virus, which appeared in Wuhan, China, also hit oil production. In the written statement made after the OPEC Meeting, it was recommended that oil production be reduced by 1.5 million barrels per day.
“It is recommended to reduce the daily oil production by 1.5 million barrels by 30 June 2020. The daily cut is applied as 1 million for OPEC and half a million barrels for non-OPEC countries. It was proposed to be extended until the end. ”
The statement also reported that the impact of the corona virus on the oil markets will continue to be monitored.
