OPEC oil output drops in August

OPEC's oil production in August 2026 declined by approximately 640,000 barrels per day, reaching 19.71 million barrels, due to export disruptions from Saudi Arabia and Iran resulting from regional conflicts. The military escalation and delays in implementing the agreed-upon production increases within the OPEC+ alliance disrupted oil supplies, especially as oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz decreased and risks to the global energy market heightened. This decline occurred amid an increase in Brent crude prices to over $100 per barrel, with the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) projecting an average crude oil price of around $91 in 2026. These developments are intensifying pressures on the oil market amid ongoing geopolitical instability.
