Here is the takeaway, from the WSJ:
“Prince Mohammed bin Salman, second-in-line to the throne, has taken a hard line on Saudi oil policy, doubling down on the kingdom’s strategy of maintaining high crude output in the face of collapsed prices. OPEC officials said the appointment of a new minister, Khalid al-Falih, makes it unlikely that Saudi Arabia will advocate changing policy with OPEC, the 13-nation cartel that controls a third of the world’s oil production.”
