<p>Global oil price has been on an uptrend following an agreement by the&nbsp;Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (Opec) as well as non-Opec countries to slash production.</p>

<p>The recovery, however, has been slow and uncertain amid the US shale oil companies ramping up production.</p>

<p>From midnight, RON95 will cost RM2.27 per litre, while RON97 and diesel will be RM2.54 and RM2.21 per litre, respectively.&nbsp;</p>
