Rodela Romero, director of the Department of Energy’s Oil Industry Management Bureau, pointed at certain global events that prompted the pump price reduction such as the extended global oil production cut.

“Oil prices remain under pressure this week despite OPEC+ (Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies) agreeing to extend their voluntary production cuts of 2.2 MMBD (million barrels per day) until the end of this year,” Romero said on Friday.

“This decision comes in response to growing concerns over weakening demand growth, high interest rates, and increased production from the US (United States),” she added.
