OPEC Agrees to Cut Oil Supply

VIENNA (Reuters) - OPEC (news - web sites) has agreed to cut oil supplies to world markets by 1.5 million barrels a day, Iranian Oil Minister Bijan Zanganeh said.

He was speaking to reporters after a two-hour meeting of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Kuwaiti Oil Minister Sheikh Saud Nasser al-Sabah said the decision was unanimous.

The pact reduces exports from 10 producer countries by just over five percent to 25.2 million barrels daily and is effective from February.

OPEC wants to defend the value of its crude near $25 a barrel. Prices had fallen from a ten-year high of $35 in October.

Oil ministers decided to curtail production despite concerns among major importing nations over the potential impact on energy costs and economic growth.

The United States and the European Union (news - web sites) had urged the group to make only a modest reduction.
