The Saudi energy minister pointed out that the global oil market is re-balancing faster than expected amid the international output cut deal.

VIENNA (Sputnik) – The global oil market is on the way toward re-balancing, which is happening faster than expected, Saudi Energy Minister Khalid Falih told reporters on Sunday.

“I am satisfied. As I have already said, the market is on the way toward re-balancing and that is occurring quicker that it could have been without the declaration of cooperation that we signed with non-OPEC countries,” Falih said.
