This comes against the backdrop of a gradual resumption of exports through the Strait of Hormuz.<\/p>\n<div class=\"news-summary-box\">\n<div class=\"summary-title\">Briefly about the main points<\/div>\n<ul>\n<li>OPEC+ has increased oil production by 188,000 barrels per day since August.<\/li>\n<li>Exports via the Strait of Hormuz are resuming following the military crisis.<\/li>\n<li>Brent crude oil prices have fallen to $72 a barrel.<\/li>\n<li>Iraq is calling for an increase in its own quotas following the UAE\u2019s withdrawal from the alliance.<\/li>\n<li>A further increase in supply may curb the rise in energy prices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<h2>OPEC+ is increasing production<\/h2>\n<p>Alliance countries <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/economics\/oae-vykhid-z-opek-naslidky-rynok-nafty\/\">OPEC+.<\/a> They agreed on a further increase in oil production quotas. During an online meeting, the participants agreed to raise production by a further 188,000 barrels per day, starting in August. This is a continuation of the policy of gradually returning reduced production volumes to the market, following similar decisions taken in June and July.<\/p>\n<h2>Resumption of exports following the crisis in the Strait of Hormuz<\/h2>\n<p>The decision was taken against the backdrop of a gradual resumption of oil exports due to <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/world\/ssha-iran-myrna-uhoda-ormuzka-protoka-2026\/\">Strait of Hormuz<\/a>, which is one of the world\u2019s most important energy supply routes. During the conflict between Israel, the US and Iran, shipping in this region was significantly restricted, which had a negative impact on supplies from countries such as Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Iraq. According to OPEC, <strong>The alliance\u2019s output in May fell to 33.13 million barrels per day<\/strong>, but began to recover gradually in June.<\/p>\n<h2>Why is the price of oil falling?<\/h2>\n<p>Despite a gradual increase in production, global <a href=\"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/economics\/intsydent-u-perskii-zatotsi-pidniav-tsiny-na-naftu-i-haz\/\">oil prices<\/a> continue to fall. The price of the benchmark Brent crude has dropped to around $72 per barrel, returning to the level seen before the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East. Analysts attribute this to several factors: the resumption of supplies through the Strait of Hormuz, weaker demand from China, increased production outside the Middle East, and the large-scale release of strategic oil reserves.<\/p>\n<h2>New challenges for the alliance<\/h2>\n<p>As well as the issue of restoring production, OPEC+ is facing internal difficulties. Following the United Arab Emirates\u2019 withdrawal from the alliance, Iraq has also announced its intention to seek an increase in its own production quotas. According to Reuters estimates, following the August increase, OPEC+ countries will still need to return around 379,000 barrels per day to the market in order to fully reverse the voluntary production cuts introduced in 2023.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u041a\u0440\u0430\u0457\u043d\u0438 OPEC+ \u0443\u0445\u0432\u0430\u043b\u0438\u043b\u0438 \u0440\u0456\u0448\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f \u0437\u0431\u0456\u043b\u044c\u0448\u0438\u0442\u0438 \u0432\u0438\u0434\u043e\u0431\u0443\u0442\u043e\u043a \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0438 \u043d\u0430 188 \u0442\u0438\u0441\u044f\u0447 \u0431\u0430\u0440\u0435\u043b\u0456\u0432 \u043d\u0430 \u0434\u043e\u0431\u0443, \u043f\u043e\u0447\u0438\u043d\u0430\u044e\u0447\u0438 \u0437 \u0441\u0435\u0440\u043f\u043d\u044f. \u0426\u0435 \u0432\u0456\u0434\u0431\u0443\u0432\u0430\u0454\u0442\u044c\u0441\u044f \u043d\u0430 \u0444\u043e\u043d\u0456 \u043f\u043e\u0441\u0442\u0443\u043f\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0433\u043e \u0432\u0456\u0434\u043d\u043e\u0432\u043b\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f \u0435\u043a\u0441\u043f\u043e\u0440\u0442\u0443 \u0447\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0437 \u041e\u0440\u043c\u0443\u0437\u044c\u043a\u0443 \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0442\u043e\u043a\u0443. \u041a\u043e\u0440\u043e\u0442\u043a\u043e \u043f\u0440\u043e \u0433\u043e\u043b\u043e\u0432\u043d\u0435 OPEC+ \u043f\u0456\u0434\u0432\u0438\u0449\u0438\u043b\u0430 \u0432\u0438\u0434\u043e\u0431\u0443\u0442\u043e\u043a \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0438 \u043d\u0430 188 \u0442\u0438\u0441\u044f\u0447 \u0431\u0430\u0440\u0435\u043b\u0456\u0432 \u043d\u0430 \u0434\u043e\u0431\u0443 \u0437 \u0441\u0435\u0440\u043f\u043d\u044f. \u0415\u043a\u0441\u043f\u043e\u0440\u0442 \u0447\u0435\u0440\u0435\u0437 \u041e\u0440\u043c\u0443\u0437\u044c\u043a\u0443 \u043f\u0440\u043e\u0442\u043e\u043a\u0443 \u0432\u0456\u0434\u043d\u043e\u0432\u043b\u044e\u0454\u0442\u044c\u0441\u044f \u043f\u0456\u0441\u043b\u044f \u0432\u0456\u0439\u0441\u044c\u043a\u043e\u0432\u043e\u0457 \u043a\u0440\u0438\u0437\u0438. \u0426\u0456\u043d\u0438 \u043d\u0430 \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0443 Brent \u0437\u043d\u0438\u0437\u0438\u043b\u0438\u0441\u044f \u0434\u043e [\u2026]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":207433346,"featured_media":23731,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"rank_math_description":"OPEC+ \u043f\u043e\u0433\u043e\u0434\u0438\u043b\u0430 \u0437\u0431\u0456\u043b\u044c\u0448\u0435\u043d\u043d\u044f \u0432\u0438\u0434\u043e\u0431\u0443\u0442\u043a\u0443 \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0438 \u043d\u0430 188 \u0442\u0438\u0441\u044f\u0447 \u0431\u0430\u0440\u0435\u043b\u0456\u0432 \u043d\u0430 \u0434\u043e\u0431\u0443, \u0449\u043e \u0432\u043f\u043b\u0438\u043d\u0435 \u043d\u0430 \u0441\u0432\u0456\u0442\u043e\u0432\u0456 \u0446\u0456\u043d\u0438 \u0442\u0430 \u0435\u043a\u0441\u043f\u043e\u0440\u0442.","rank_math_title":"OPEC+ \u0437\u0431\u0456\u043b\u044c\u0448\u0443\u0454 \u0432\u0438\u0434\u043e\u0431\u0443\u0442\u043e\u043a \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0438 \u043d\u0430 188 \u0442\u0438\u0441\u044f\u0447 \u0431\u0430\u0440\u0435\u043b\u0456\u0432","rank_math_focus_keyword":"OPEC+,\u0432\u0438\u0434\u043e\u0431\u0443\u0442\u043e\u043a \u043d\u0430\u0444\u0442\u0438","td_subtitle":"","subtitle":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[805618],"tags":[806753],"class_list":["post-23732","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-economics","tag-806753"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23732","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/207433346"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=23732"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23732\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":23733,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/23732\/revisions\/23733"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/23731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=23732"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=23732"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/ukrmedia.news\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=23732"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
