Vienna - Oil ministers from the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) decided Friday in Vienna to cut their total production by 1.5 million barrels per day, in reaction to falling prices and slowing demand.

"There is an oversupply, and the stocks are very high," said OPEC President and Algerian Energy Minsiter Chakib Khelil, explaining the decision.

The cut, down from the current quota of 28.8 million barrels per day, would be effective from the start of November, OPEC said in a statement. One barrel equals 159 litres.

Khelil denied that the cartel's move would have any impact on inflation or global economic growth.
