                  OPEC aims to change the price of oil by adjusting the volume of supply. If its members want to raise the price of oil, they can lower their production quotas to limit supply. In early September, OPEC surprised the markets and announced a slight reduction in oil production. We can expect that also this time the decision will be made to reduce production by OPEC+.

                  The group may announce that it is expanding a general cooperation agreement between OPEC, Russia and other producing countries, which expires in December.
