OPEC+ said it could change plans at short notice if the market worsens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Oil slid for a sixth straight week due to the spread of omicron and the prospect of more barrels coming to the market. Crude is down about 20% since the start of November, paring this year\u2019s gain to 35%.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>_____________<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomberg.com\/\">By&nbsp;Anthony Di Paola&nbsp;from&nbsp;Bloomberg News<br><br>bloomberg.com 12 03 2021&nbsp;<\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.petroleumworld.com\/%20\">&nbsp;<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Copyright \u00a91999-2021&nbsp;Petroleumworld or respective author or news agency.
