Corte na produção da OPEC faz subir o preço do petróleo
April 3, 2023 -
A OPEC+, o cartel internacional dos países exportadores de petróleo
mais a Rússia, anunciaram um corte na produção, fazendo subir os
preços e arriscando nova pressão inflacionista na economia global.
Including Russia, the cut will amount to around 1.6 million barrels per day, with Saudi Arabia leading with a 500,000 barrels/day supply reduction.
The move could exacerbate tensions between Saudi Arabia and the U.S. after President Joe Biden warned in October, just before the U.S. midterms when output was last cut, that the world needs lower prices to support economic growth and prevent Russia from increasing its revenue to fund the war in Ukraine.
