Luanda - Angola's production quota in the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) increases to 1.529,000 barrels of oil/day as of September, after the Cartel just allowed another 100,000 barrels/day.
The agreement to increase oil production by 100,000 barrels/day, starting in September, was taken at the 31st OPEC and Allied
Ministerial Meeting (OPEC+) held this Wednesday, in Vienna, Austria.
This is a lower rate than the one that had been decided by OPEC+ for the months of July and August this year, a period in which an offer of 600 thousand barrels of oil/day was agreed.

For this month of August, Angola's production quota in OPEC is 1.502,000 barrels/day of crude oil.
