In recent news the oversupply and lack of demand continues to increase and one of the larger producers, Russia, who is not part of OPEC says they will not cut output. Russia’s Energy Minister Alexander Novak told CNBC, “The gas and oil industry is one of the most important industries in Russia…(But) with respect to Russia’s export influence on global markets in the past years, we have maintained our output rate pretty much unchanged over the past three to four years, but we have witnessed a lot of inflow, of a lot shale oil from the United States.”
