Countries with a more robust extractive industry, such as Russia or Kazakhstan, would like to expand their drilling. Countries whose production has been affected by political instability, like Libya or Venezuela, would prefer to maintain export quotas for now.<br \/>\nDespite previous disagreements between Iran and Saudi Arabia, an agreement on a, albeit slight, increase in production appears possible. Dependence on oil is key to defining the interests of individual countries: Venezuela and Iran are particularly hesitant to bring about a price fall. New US sanctions against Iranian crude oil exports, after Donald Trump's decision to withdraw from the nuclear deal, also shape the country's position and its resistant stance towards the strategies of others. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/topics\/1830\/opec\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">OPEC members . <\/a><br \/>\n<a title=\"Infographic: How Much Do OPEC Members Disagree on Oil Prices? | Statista\" href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/chart\/14365\/how-much-does-opec-disagree-on-oil-prices\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"width: 100%; height: auto !important; max-width: 960px; -ms-interpolation-mode: bicubic;\" title=\"Iran\" src=\"https:\/\/infographic.statista.com\/normal\/chartoftheday_14365_how_much_does_opec_disagree_on_oil_prices_n.jpg\" alt=\"Infographic: How Much Do OPEC Members Disagree on Oil Prices? | Statista\" width=\"100%\" height=\"auto\" \/><\/a> Further infographics can be found at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.statista.com\/chartoftheday\/\">Statista<\/a><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the past 12 months, oil prices have seen a rally.
