NNA – Saudi Arabia’s Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman met with Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak on Friday.
The two discussed the development of the joint Saudi-Russian committee and opportunities for further partnership ahead of the OPEC+ meeting scheduled for August 3.
Earlier this month the kingdom reportedly more than doubled its import of Russian oil in Q2 to feed power stations supporting a spike in cooling demands, thus freeing up its own druce for exports. — RT
