The alliance believes that the uncertainty in the global oil market and sharp price fluctuations come in light of abnormal conditions witnessed by the global economy, at the forefront of fears of recession, which calls for production control.

And last week, several countries in the “OPEC” alliance supported Saudi statements regarding the possibility of reducing oil production as one of the tools to enhance market stability.

In Monday morning trading, Brent crude futures prices for November delivery rose 0.85 percent, or 79 cents, to $100.01 a barrel.
