OPEC and non-OPEC meeting in focus
Russian oil minister Novak is crossing on the wires and discussing the proposed OPEC/Non-OPEC meeting.
He said Russia is ready to meet in any format. He clarified that the meeting is meant for energy ministers and that no firm agreement have been reached.

USD/CAD is under pressure and testing 1.40.
