Saudi Arabia and other oil producers in the OPEC+ group pushed back on a Mexican plan to cut less than requested under plans for global supply curbs, two sources from the OPEC+ group said on Friday.

The Canadian minister also said that G20 members agreed to set up a focus group to report on a coordinated response on oil prices and production later. Mexico has reached a deal on oil-production cuts with the OPEC+ group after an intervention from the US. Mexico was the lone holdout from a meeting held Wednesday of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC), Russia, and others, known as the OPEC+ group. The country had been asked to cut 400,000 barrels per day (bpd), a figure Mexican authorities balked at. US President Donald Trump has agreed to cut an additional 250,000 bpd in production, on top of any other cuts, while Mexico will cut 100,000 bpd, Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador said, Bloomberg reported.
