Oil: Opec + increases production by just 100,000 barrels

(ANSA) - ROME, AUGUST 03 - OPEC + has decided to increase oil production in September by only 100,000 barrels per day, a much lower quantity than the 600 million bucks per day that had been pumped into a market in July and August hungry for crude oil, where the prices are soaring.

The decision is driving oil prices up, with WTI rising by 1.7% to $ 96.1 per year, and Brent rising by 1.5% to $ 102.
