BAGHDAD, Iraq โ Iraq's crude oil production in June 2026 rose by roughly 446,000 barrels per day from the previous month, reaching 1.97 million bpd, according to OPEC's monthly oil market report released on Tuesday. The wider OPEC+ alliance added about 2.999 million bpd, bringing its combined output to 36.278 million bpd, while OPEC member states together produced 22.002 million bpd.
Within the alliance, the United Arab Emirates posted the largest monthly increase, while Saudi Arabia recorded the steepest decline, with output falling by 99,000 bpd to 6.847 million bpd. The figures were published as OPEC+ continues to manage voluntary supply cuts.
The group decided at the start of July to raise output by 188,000 bpd for August, a step tied to a planned gradual unwinding of the voluntary cuts. According to OPEC, the data were released against a backdrop of close monitoring of OPEC+ supply policy in global markets. No further details on the report's methodology were immediately available.
