Africa-Press – Malawi. <\/strong><\/span>Oil prices were mixed on Wednesday over supply uncertainties as investors await the outcome of the next OPEC meeting amid the group\u2019s supply curbs and concerns about the global economy.<\/p>\n

International benchmark Brent crude traded at $75.80 per barrel at 10.07 am local time (0707GMT), a 0.59% loss from the closing price of $76.25 a barrel in the previous trading session on Tuesday.<\/p>\n

The American benchmark West Texas Intermediate (WTI) traded at the same time at $70.91 per barrel, up 1.60% from the previous session’s close of $69.79 per barrel.<\/p>\n

Price increases were driven by supply woes after Saudi Arabia announced its intention to unilaterally extend its production cuts of 1 million barrels per day (bpd) through August, leaving the door open for further extensions.<\/p>\n

Russia followed suit with an announcement of a voluntary reduction of its oil exports by 500,000 bpd in August, on top of the 700,000 bpd of cuts in place since March.<\/p>\n

Algeria later said it would also reduce output by an extra 20,000 bpd in August, bringing its total output cut to 68,000 bpd since April.<\/p>\n

The new restrictions come amid concerns about dwindling oil supplies and deteriorating global economies as a result of high inflation and rising interest rates to combat it.<\/p>\n

Investors are now monitoring the 8th OPEC International Seminar, where participants from leading producing countries and major companies will hold high-level discussions on the most pressing issues regarding the energy sector.<\/p>\n

Strong dollar pushes prices down<\/b><\/p>\n

Dollar-indexed oil prices came under downward pressure from the rising value of the greenback.<\/p>\n

The US dollar index, which measures the value of the American dollar against a basket of currencies, including the Japanese yen, British pound, Canadian dollar, Swedish krona, and Swiss franc, rose 0.05% to 102.79.<\/p>\n
