1. OPEC+ on Sunday agreed to extend all production curbs into next year, a deal that likely signals oil prices will remain elevated through the U.S. presidential election. The agreement comes on the same day the group’s kingpin, Saudi Arabia, launched a giant sale of shares in its national oil champion that will yield billions to help fund the kingdom’s economic transformation. The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and its allies, together known as OPEC+, agreed to keep collective curbs through next year. The group has longstanding official reductions of 3.66 million barrels a day. (Source: wsj.com)

2. Russia’s attempts to conclude a major gas pipeline deal with China have run aground over what Moscow sees as Beijing’s unreasonable demands on price and supply levels, according to three people familiar with the matter. Beijing’s tough stance on the Power of Siberia 2 pipeline underscores how Russia’s invasion of Ukraine has left President Vladimir Putin increasingly dependent on Chinese leader Xi Jinping for economic support. The people familiar with the matter said China had asked to pay close to Russia’s heavily subsidized domestic prices and would only commit to buying a small fraction of the pipeline’s planned annual capacity. Approval for the pipeline would transform the dire fortunes of Gazprom, Russia’s state gas export monopoly, by linking the Chinese market to gas fields in western Russia that once supplied Europe. Gazprom suffered a loss of $6.9 billion last year, its biggest in at least a quarter of a century, amid plummeting gas sales to Europe.  (Source: ft.com)
