Crude oil production levels have been maintained at a certain threshold for a period of time. This threshold is tied to a production quota. The most recent figure available is for August, when production reached a particular daily rate.

Further details about this development are available from the source. Production has been at or above this level for four months.

The daily production rate in August was 1.68 million barrels per day, which is the same as the quota that has been sustained for four consecutive months.
