Mazrouei told reporters in Jeddah that conformity with the oil supply cuts is "excellent" and that he was happy with the UAE's compliance level.

He was speaking ahead of a ministerial panel gathering on Sunday of top OPEC and non-OPEC producers, including Saudi Arabia and Russia, known as the JMMC, which will discuss oil market situation ahead of a policy meeting in June and could recommend a course of action for the oil producers.
