Oil prices were falling again on Thursday, with OPEC+ set to meet this weekend. The cartel is considering pumping out more crude, Reuters reported Wednesday, citing people familiar with the discussions.

The Brent international oil benchmark fell 1.1% to $66.89 a barrel, and West Texas Intermediate U.S. crude prices were down 1.1% to $63.25 a barrel.

The gauges fell about 2% after Wednesday’s report, which also dragged down shares in oil majors ExxonMobil, Chevron, Shell, and BP.
