OPEC monitors its own crude production using so-called secondary sources,
including the media. Platts publishes monthly estimates of OPEC production,
based on a survey of OPEC and oil industry officials, on a
country-by-country basis.
OPEC sets a production ceiling for ten of its 11 members. Iraq, which is
struggling to rebuild its oil industry after years of UN sanctions and a war
led by the US, does not have a production quota.
All figures are in millions of barrels per day.
