OPEC’s crude production climbed last month as Saudi Arabia finished the revival of an initial tranche of halted supplies, according to a Bloomberg survey.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries raised output by 400,000 barrels a day in September, formally completing the restart of 2.2 million barrels a day shuttered by the group and its allies in 2023, the survey showed. The 12 OPEC nations’ total production was 29.05 million barrels a day.
