A recent paper questions how much influence OPEC+ can have on the matter that most concerns it: the oil price

by researchers at the European Central Bank calls into question how much influence this group, known as OPEC+, can have on the matter that most concerns it: the oil price.

When OPEC was formed in 1960, its five members controlled four-fifths of the world’s oil exports. By 2019, although its membership had expanded to include 14 countries, its share of global production had fallen by half, to 39%. That decline resulted in part from the rapid rise of America’s oil production brought about by shale oil: its share of the global oil market rose from 8% to 19% between 2011 and 2019.
