"It was noted that the agreements reached on reducing oil production, combined with voluntary commitments to limit the supply of the commodity, make it possible to ensure the stability of the global energy market," the Kremlin said in its statement representing the phone call. 

Further cooperations 

Back in June, members of the OPEC+ group agreed to cut oil outputs to 40.463 million barrels per day throughout 2024, the group said in a statement after a meeting in Vienna.

"The Participating Countries decided to… [a]djust the level of overall crude oil production for OPEC and non-OPEC Participating Countries in the [Declaration of Cooperation] to 40.46 mb/d, starting 1 January 2024 until 31 December 2024," the group said in its joint statement.  

Russia and Saudi Arabia have been strengthening their bilateral relations, especially in light of oil production, Riyadh's growing differences with the US, and increasing relations with China.
