(Adds background, changes dateline) DUBAI, July 9 (Reuters) - Saudi Arabia produced 9.780 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil in June, up from 9.705 million bpd in May, an industry source familiar with the matter said on Wednesday. The world's largest oil exporter and OPEC heavyweight supplied 9.745 million bpd to the market, the source said. Demand for power generation oil in Saudi Arabia is usually higher in June than in May, official data from recent years shows. OPEC's oil output has fallen in June from May's three-month high, a Reuters survey found last month, as fighting in Iraq closed its largest oil refinery and technical problems slowed its southern exports.
