Dow Jones
Sep 29

0812 GMT - European oil companies fall in morning trade as fears of a supply glut grow. This is driven by reports which indicate OPEC+ might increase production once again. The group has been increasing production in recent months and Reuters reports that it will likely agree to increase oil production by at least 137,000 barrels a day at its meeting next Sunday. Adding to supply concerns is the re-emergence of Iraqi oil produced in the Kurdistan region after a more than two-year stoppage. Brent crude falls 1% to $68.54 a barrel, while WTI is down 1.1% to $64.99 a barrel. BP, TotalEnergies, Galp Energia and Eni fall around 0.6%, Repsol drops 0.4% while Shell slides 0.16%.(adam.whittaker@wsj.com)
