Would have been nice if he had done that about a month ago.

So… the Saudis always had the solution in their hands to bring down oil prices, help Republicans win the midterms, wipe the Iranian terrorists off the face of the earth, and secure their own region… wow.

They flooded the market in 2014 to try and destroy the US Shale industry, kept oil between $40 and $60 for years. I am not sure Saudi/OPEC has the capacity to do it anymore though, they might be tapped out for production.

He can't do this. It would destroy his country's economy.

They should’ve done this many months ago, too weak and sympathetic. Trump should’ve twisted their arm on this.

"Reportedly?" why is that I can't find anything other than this random tweet to corroborate this outlandish claim?

Ridiculous claims, Saudi Arabia has great partnership and relations with Russia generally and more effective in OPEC+, these are silly allegations with no connection to the truth

Gas and diesel prices are too high. I hope Saudi Arabia does this. It takes out the remains of Russia's economic Lifeline too.

Saudi Aramco - is at full capacity. They maintain a Maximum Sustainable Capacity (MSC) of 12 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil. Key Details Capacity Directive: Following a directive from the Saudi Ministry of Energy, Aramco halted its previous plans to expand MSC to 13 million bpd and officially maintains the ceiling at 12 million bpd. Sustained Output: CEO Amin Nasser has noted that the company can sustain crude oil production at 12 million bpd for a year without incurring additional major costs. Actual Output: Real-world production typically runs below this maximum limit—averaging roughly 9 to 11 million bpd—depending on OPEC+ production quotas and global market conditions.

Haha why would they do that? They would crater their own economy in the process. Their economy is already in trouble due to which they've cancelled or delayed some big projects

Maybe they should have done this before the US midterms...

Saudi Arabia is helpless against Iran and is currently getting slapped around by Yemen. Iran could easily take out the Saudi's oil production if they interfere with Yemen's right to fight back against decades of Saudi war crimes.

Why don't the Saudis just blow up all the Houthis?

When oil was att Zero during covid, they almost bancrupted and where forced to go in debt as rest of worlds already was, that's why they have tax now and no cash as many think they do. So good luck with that plan.

Prices are currently constrained by transport capacity. Increasing production would do nothing.

Baseless rumors and outright lies. No credible or official source has confirmed these claims.

Saudi Arabia doesn't care if the weapons are used against Israel, but only cares about itself. Selfish.
