On May 1, numerous countries involved in the OPEC+ agreement commenced a voluntary cut in oil production. The reduction in production will persist until the end of 2023, resulting in a total decrease of 1.66 million barrels per day. Consequently, the prices of crude oil futures contracts have fallen to levels of $76.60 per barrel. It is possible that markets will remain subdued this week, with traders awaiting the outcome of the US Federal Reserve meeting on May 3rd.
