Brazil – OPEC+

Brazil, one of the world’s major oil producers, will join Opec+ next year. The oil cartel announced the move Thursday at a meeting in the Austrian capital, Vienna. Brazil is among the 10 largest oil producers in the world, and the largest producer in Latin America. In September, Brazilian production reached 3.7 million barrels of oil per day. This was agreed at a meeting on Thursday between Brazil, Opec’s 13 member states, led by Saudi Arabia, and the 10 countries that with Russia at the forefront, have signed agreements to regulate oil production. /ritzau/ OPEC /
