The US Department of Energy raised the forecast for oil production in the country for 2023

It is reported by RIA Novosti with reference to the data of the monthly short-term forecast of the Energy Information Administration of the Ministry (EIA).

Next year, production is expected to reach 12.81 million barrels per day.

In early December, the G7 states (USA, Canada, France, Germany, Italy, Japan, Great Britain), the European Union and Australia banned their companies from insuring and transporting Russian oil by sea to third countries at a price higher than $60 per barrel.

From February 5, 2023, the relevant restrictions should also apply to petroleum products.
