The rising output has put OPEC plans to normalize oil prices in jeopardy. Oil prices have been historically down in the last few years as output for the crude increased manifolds that brought down the prices of oil in international markets. US Shale producers have informed that they plan to ramp up the production after OPEC announced extension in the cuts.
