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 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.

The increase, which the group said was a response to “a steady global economic outlook,” was higher than some analysts expected and could lead to lower oil prices.
