VIENNA--OPEC has agreed to adhere to its previously approved oil-production ceiling of 30 million barrels a day, and as such, the group agreed to rein in its combined 1.6 million barrels a day of overproduction, Secretary General Abdalla Salem el-Badri said Thursday after the group's policy meeting.
When asked if members have individual production quotas, Mr. el-Badri said: "Every country knows its number."
Mr. el-Badri said they discussed the appointment of a candidate to succeed him when he steps down as secretary general at the end of the year.
