Crude Oil on MCX settled up 2.17% at 3951 as OPEC-led supply cuts and announcement of a higher than expected cut by Saudi Arabia encouraged investors. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and allies led by Russia started voluntary production cuts last month, aiming to tighten the market.
Top exporter and de facto OPEC leader Saudi Arabia said it would cut more than half a million barrels per day (bpd) more in March than the deal called for, sending prices surging. Prices were also buoyed by the partial closure of Saudi Arabia’s Safaniya, its largest offshore oilfield with production capacity of more than 1 million bpd.
The shutdown occurred about two weeks ago, a source said, and it was not immediately clear when the field would return to full capacity. U.S. oil production is on the rise, while the seizure of Libya’s main oilfield by Eastern armed forces this week could soon lead to its reopening.
But U.S. sanctions on Venezuela and Iran have helped to tighten global supply and security threats could threaten Nigerian production after general elections this weekend. Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said that there are risks for global oil markets from the political crisis in Venezuela, yet there are no proposals to reverse the global oil production cut deal.
Novak said Russia has cut its oil production under a pact between OPEC and non-OPEC producers by 80,000-90,000 barrels per day from its level in October, Moscow’s reference level for its cuts.
