For the first time "Gazprom Neft" company implemented winter shipment of oil by sea from Novoportovskoye deposit located on the Yamal Peninsula. The first batch of raw materials in the amount of 16 thousand tons was sent to European consumers by two tankers accompanied by an icebreaker.

Under the watchful eye of major producers such as Saudia Arabia and Russia, delegates from both the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries and around 10 other non-OPEC members -- which together account for more than half of total global output -- will first hold preparatory meetings earlier in the week and then full plenary sessions on Thursday and Friday.

La reducción de la producción de petroleo es una medida de mitigación de la OPEP para evitar que los precios sigan cayendo. (José Prada)

La OPEP y sus socios productores acordaron, este 12 de abril, el “mayor recorte de la producción de la historia” con la esperanza de hacer subir los precios del petróleo en plena pandemia de coronavirus y pese a las tensiones entre Moscú y Riad.

La reunión "concluyó este domingo con un consenso de productores de la OPEP sobre el recorte de la producción a partir de mayo", escribió en Twitter el ministro saudí de Energía, Abdul Aziz bin Salman.
