UAE on track to meet target for production cuts,
Suhail Al Mazrouei
Dubai - Arab Today
The UAE is deepening its oil production cuts and expects to meet its commitment to reduce output by 139,000 barrels per day by June, Suhail Al Mazrouei, the Energy Minister, said on Tuesday.
Mr Al Mazrouei said on the sidelines of the CeraWeek conference in Houston that the UAE cut more production last month than it did in January as it phases in compliance with the late November agreement to bring supplies closer to demand.
The Opec pact, which was joined by non-Opec countries including Russia and Kazakhstan, is intended to reduce global output by about 1.8 million bpd. The six-month agreement took effect on January 1.
As The National reported last month, the UAE is expecting output to fall in March and April when it cuts back for oilfield maintenance.
The International Energy Agency, the Paris-based energy watchdog, has said that some other countries did not achieve their cuts levels in January, the first month of the deal. These included the UAE, which produced 2.96 million bpd versus a pledged level of 2.7 million bpd.

to 'eternal style' of late Alaia
Paris - Emiratesvoice
Two months after legendary designer Azzedine Alaia's sudden death plunged the fashion world into mourning, an exhibition in homage to the "King of Cling" opens Monday in his studios in Paris. The Tunisian-born designer, renowned for the way his clothes hugged the body, died suddenly in November aged 82, reportedly of heart failure after falling down the stairs at his home. The diminutive maverick, who ignored fashion week convention by showing when and where he wanted, in July produced his first couture collection in six years to rapturous reviews. Now some of his most iconic dresses are going on display in the glass-roofed gallery next to his studio and home in the Marais district where he used to show his creations. It includes the dress worn by supermodel Naomi Campbell, his longtime friend and muse, when she led
