OPEC meeting (JMMC) coming up this week

The OPEC+ meeting of the Joint Ministerial Monitoring Committee (JMMC) will be held via videoconference on Thursday.

The JMMC’s primary role is to monitor compliance with production agreements among OPEC+ members and assess market conditions.

This includes

• reviewing monthly production levels,
• ensuring that member countries adhere to agreed production cuts or increases,
• and making recommendations to the broader OPEC+ group on adjustments to production targets.

It conducts a review of the oil markets every two months and has the authority to call for a full OPEC+ meeting if it decides one is needed.

Expectations are that the JMMC will not find any reason to call for a full OPEC+ meeting, nor to recommend any change to output policy.
