OPEC and non-OPEC exporters must stick to a consistent message if they are to avoid exacerbating wild swings in the oil market, Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak said Sunday.
“There is a lot of volatility in the market. And what’s more this volatility could remain,” Novak told CNBC’s Steve Sedgwick, according to a translation.
“Therefore, right now we shouldn’t be making any hasty decisions. We need to look at the situation very carefully to see how it will develop so that we don’t end up changing our course by 180 degrees every month.”
