Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countrie has kept the forecast of oil demand this year at the level of 1 million 650 thousand barrels per day. At the same time, the organization raised expectations of an increase in the supply of oil from non-OPEC countries by 130,000 barrels per day to 1 million 860 thousand barrels per day. The organization explains the increase in the forecast of supply from non-OPEC countries by reviewing the increase in data on the extraction of this raw material for the first quarter in a number of countries. The USA and Canada are among such countries.
