    Foreign News reported on June 2 that a survey showed that OPEC’s daily output in May increased by 320,000 barrels to 25.
    56 million barrels, most of which came from Saudi Arabia
    .
    Further increases in production this month and next month have been scheduled
    .


    OPEC and its allies made unprecedented supply cuts when demand for crude oil fell sharply last year, and now the organization is cautiously restoring supplies
    .
    Saudi Energy Minister Abdulaziz bin Salman said on Tuesday that "the demand side shows clear signs of improvement
    .
    "

    The oil market is easily absorbing the increased supply, and the price of international crude oil futures in London is already higher than $70 per barrel
    .
    Nevertheless, the aforementioned Saudi Energy Minister is unwilling to disclose whether OPEC will resume more idle supply after the current production increase phase ends in July
    .


    According to the survey, Saudi Arabia’s daily output in May increased by 350,000 barrels to 8.
    46 million barrels
    .


    The above figures are based on ship tracking data, information provided by officials, and estimates from institutions such as Rystad Energy AS, JBC Energy GmbH, and Petro-Logistics SA
    .


      OPEC, which consists of 23 countries, is recovering a daily output of slightly more than 2 million barrels by the end of July
    .
    After completion, the organization still has millions of barrels of idle capacity per day that can be restarted when needed
    .
