KARUIZAWA, Japan, (Pakistan Point News - 15th Jun, 2019) Saudi Energy Minister Khalid al-Falih said on Saturday that he hopes oil producers will be able to balance the oil market before next year.
According to Reuters, when asked about the current oil market situation, al-Falih said, "We hope that we will balance the market before next year. We are working on it." The minister's remarks were made on the sidelines of a meeting of G20 energy and environment ministers in Karuizawa, Japan.
