The UAE -- OPEC's third largest oil producer -- has agreed to cut output from about 4.1 million b/d in April to around 2.5 million b/d in May and June. The reductions are part of the action agreed by the broader so called OPEC+ pact that will see 23 members trim output collectively by 9.7 million b/d during these two months.
The OPEC+ coalition will reduce the output cuts gradually through to April 2022 as global demand picks up.
