The Group of Seven nations plan to release 100 million barrels of oil and diesel in a coordinated move aimed at preventing further price spikes, according to the BBC.
The release comes after a threat from President Trump to ban US diesel exports, a step that could have tightened global supply.
The coordinated action is intended to stabilize markets and avoid the disruption that a US export ban could cause to global diesel supplies.
Further details on the timing and distribution of the release among G7 members have not been specified in the report.
