Saudi Minister of Energy Prince Abdulaziz Bin Salman (ABS) held a meeting with Russian Deputy Prime Minister Alexander Novak on the sidelines of the Saudi-Russian Investment and Business Forum earlier this month (1/12/2025) in Riyadh.
The meeting offers fresh insight into how the two energy powers are quietly recalibrating coordination amid a shifting global market. The note touches on:
- Recalibrating OPEC+ discipline and future production baselines
- Navigating shifting global supply, LNG growth, and gas ambitions
- Managing sanctions risk, predictability, and geopolitical trade-offs
