OPEC+ is preparing to approve one more production increase for September and then put the monthly quota parade on hold through the end of the year. Saudi Arabia, Russia, Iraq, Kuwait, Algeria, Kazakhstan, and Oman are expected to raise their combined September target by about 188,000 barrels per day when they meet on August 2, sources told Reuters.

Uzbekistan appears to be hedging its bets when it comes to Afghanistan’s ability to serve as a trade corridor. Over the past year, Tashkent has ramped up its engagement with Afghanistan, setting an ambitious target of almost tripling annual bilateral trade volume over the next few years. Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev also recently stated that the government was “actively working” with the Taliban leadership to create a trans-Afghan rail route to speed the flow of Uzbek goods to Pakistani seaports.

The European Union could save a lot on LNG imports by 2030 if it achieves its heat pump, solar, and wind installation targets…so much so that the bloc could save twice the gas it imports from Qatar, the Institute for Energy Economics and Financial Analysis (IEEFA) said on Tuesday. IEEFA, which advocates for an accelerated energy transition, estimates that heat pump deployment and increased solar and wind generation reduced the EU's natural gas demand by 8.8 bcm in 2024.
