The news were reported by the Saudi Press Agency, who cited an unidentified official source in the Kingdom's Energy Ministry.

The agency reported that Saudi Arabia will continue to produce 9 million barrels per day of oil. The source stated: "This further voluntary decrease is designed to reinforce the preventative actions taken by OPEC+ to safeguard the stability and balance of oil markets.

Later, Saudi Arabia declared that it would voluntarily reduce its output in July by an additional 1 million barrels per day. The steps were done to stabilize the oil market.
