According to ANI, the Ministry of Petroleum and Natural Gas recently expressed concerns regarding oil pricing, supply, and demand to the main oil-producing countries.
“As crude oil prices climb globally, the petroleum ministry has contacted the energy ministries of a number of nations, including Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Russia, and others,” the source said.
