Nigerian oil minister Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu told CNBC that “there is a lot of conversation going on and there’s a lot of consensus building on the issue of the freeze.
He says Saudi Arabia and Russia are in on the plan.
WTI oil settled up 3% for the day, rising to $33.75 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Prices have been rising since a 13-year low near $26 about a month ago.
