OPEC+ nations plan to decide in early March whether to extend oil output cuts into the second quarter, delegates said.

Seven coalition members have pledged supply curbs totaling about 900,000 barrels a day this quarter, in tandem with a 1 million-barrel reduction by group leader Saudi Arabia. They’ll review whether to continue the curbs in about one month’s time, according to officials, who asked not to be identified.
