The 13-member Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries is pumping 25.75 million barrels per day in January, the survey found, up 160,000 bpd from December and a further increase from a three-decade low reached in June

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies may discuss this month which countries have lagged in reducing their oil output under a global oil cut deal, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said

The group, known as OPEC+, also demanded countries such as Nigeria and Iraq, which exceeded production quotas in May and June, compensate with extra cuts from July to September

OPEC+ oil producers could still hold a ministerial video conference this week if Iraq and others which have not fully complied with existing oil supply cuts agree to boost their adherence
