Two questions stand out after the decision by OPEC+ to accelerate increases in crude oil output: who is going to buy the extra crude, and will the group actually export the additional barrels they say they are going to produce?

The eight OPEC+ nations on Saturday agreed to increase their crude oil production by 548,000 barrels per day starting in August.

The price of oil was stable on Monday despite a larger-than-expected increase in production by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies. Seasonal demand and doubts about the actual increase in output explain the muted reaction.
