Key Quotes:
"The OPEC, together with a group of non-OPEC producers led by Russia, has been restraining output since the start of this year in a bid to end a global supply overhang and prop up prices. The deal to curb output is due to expire in March 2018, and OPEC meets on 30 November to discuss the outlook for the policy. The expectation is for the agreement to be extended to cover the whole of next year."
