Saudis Say Cooperation With Russia Breathed Life Back Into OPEC - Bloomberg

Saudis Say Cooperation With Russia Breathed Life Back Into OPEC - Bloomberg:

"Cooperation between Saudi Arabia and Russia has “breathed life back into OPEC” and made the country more optimistic about the outlook for oil than it has been for several years, said the kingdom’s energy minister. The success of the collaboration between the world’s two largest oil exporters is clear, said Saudi Minister of Energy and Industry Khalid Al-Falih. The relationship, which involves coordinated production cuts to eliminate an oversupply and joint energy investments, brings both short- and long-term gains, he said after a meeting in Moscow with his Russian counterpart Alexander Novak. Al-Falih was speaking at the start of Saudi King Salman bin Abdulaziz’s historic first visit to Russia to meet with President Vladimir Putin. The two nations -- joint architects of the supply agreement between the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and other producers that has boosted prices -- are looking at ways to extend and deepen their relationship."
