  Oil futures rose Wednesday, with investors anticipating an extension of production cuts that expire at the end of the quarter.
  
  OPEC+ officials are scheduled to meet via videoconference on Sunday. Analysts said the decision to forgo an in-person meeting was being taken as a sign the gathering isn’t expected to be contentious, with traders looking for an extension of roughly 2.2 million barrels a day in voluntary cuts beyond June 30.

The current level is already causing several producers to take on additional debt and push out timelines for some high-profile projects,” said Helima Croft, head of global commodity strategy at RBC Capital Markets, in a note.
  
  ”Adding more barrels at this moment would likely yield a suboptimal price environment that would not be offset by additional market share advantages,” she wrote.
