據美國彭博新聞社2021年7月5日報道，歐佩克+沒有達成新的協議就放棄了其會議，使該卡特爾陷入危機，使石油市場面臨供應緊張和價格上漲。

　　由于信息沒有公開而要求不具名采訪的與會代表說，持續數日的緊張談判未能解決沙特阿拉伯和阿拉伯聯合酋長國之間的激烈爭端。 歐佩克秘書長巴爾金都發表聲明說，歐佩克+沒有就下次會議的召開日期達成一致。

　　談判破裂的最直接影響是，就目前而言，歐佩克+不會增加8月份的原油產量，在全球經濟從冠狀病毒大流行的需求迅速復蘇之際，這剝奪了至關重要的額外原油供應。

　　然而，形勢是不穩定的，歐佩克+可能隨時重啟談判。 由于油價今年迄今已上漲了大約50%，并逼近每桶80美元，歐佩克+可能會感受到來自擔心通脹上升的消費國的壓力。

　　截至7月5日下午4點25分，倫敦原油價格上漲0.9%，至每桶76.84美元，為2018年以來的最高水平。

　　OPEC fails to strike new output deal, raising oil prices and pressuring supply

　　OPEC+ abandoned its meeting without a deal, tipping the cartel into crisis and leaving the oil market facing tight supplies and rising prices.

　　Several days of tense talks failed to resolve a bitter dispute between Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates, delegates said, asking not to be named because the information wasn’t public. The group didn’t agree a date for its next meeting, according to a statement from OPEC Secretary-General Mohammad Barkindo.

　　The most immediate effect of the breakdown in talks is that, for now, OPEC+ won’t increase production for August, depriving the global economy of vital extra supplies as demand recovers rapidly from the coronavirus pandemic.

　　However, the situation is fluid and the group could reactivate talks at any moment. With prices up about 50% this year and climbing toward $80 a barrel, the cartel may feel pressure from consuming countries concerned about rising inflation.

　　Crude prices jumped 0.9% to $76.84 a barrel as of 4:25 p.m. in London, the highest since 2018.
