Saudi oil minister: OPEC+ needs a few months to drain excess inventory

No OPEC+ meeting in April, next one to be in June

  • Next JMMC meeting likely in first half of May
  • Date to be announced in the next two weeks
  • Inventory glut needs to be drained before cuts are ended
  • Confident that March oil output cuts compliance is to exceed 100%

Unless the Saudis themselves step up with further cuts, it's hard to see how they can keep up with >100% compliance. That said, sentiment remains that as long as they are still doing their part it should keep oil prices underpinned over the next few months.
