Monoply is a situation in which a single person or individual or a business dictates the whole system and people are dependent only on that single individual or business.
While cartel is a situation where a group of businesses or companies work hand in hand instead of competing with each other to benefit themselves and not the consumer.In both conditions the consumer is the looser.
The difference in a cartel and a oligopoly is: A cartel is a small number of firms that dominate the industry to fix price and production; and oligopoly is a small number of firms that compete with each other and numerous sellers have their presence in one significant market.
A cartel is a formal agreement and oligopoly is a small market that dominate

Collusive oligopoly is an industry that only contains few producers (oligopoly), in which producers agree among one another as to pricing of output and allocation of output markets among themselves. Cartel, such as OPEC, are collusive oligopolies.
1. Cartel: A cartel is when a group of firms decide to agree on leveling out the output. In some countries, output supply needed might be more than other countries or more than the specified output level. Thus, it might be a problem in some countries. 2. Collusions: Collusions are informal agreements done between firms in an oligopoly to ristrict competition. Thus, new firms my not be able to set up and this may cause dificiency of choice for customers.
In a pure oligopoly the products that are sold are homogeneous (the same e.g. gold, steel etc). While in a impure oligopoly the product that are sold are heterogeneous (different, think tablets, smart phones etc.).
A cartel is a formal agreement between companies to control the price of a commodity or product etc - like OPEC. Tacit collusion occurs when companies make an informal agreement to fix prices (i.e. they do this without letting their competitors or official bodies know). Your confusion might arise from the fact that members of a Cartel (an officially organised group) can still engage in unofficial agreements (tacit collusion), although it is usually firms outside a cartel who do this

An oligopoly is an intermediate market structure between the extremes of perfect competition and monopoly. Oligopoly firms might compete (noncooperative oligopoly) or cooperate (cooperative oligopoly) in the Marketplace.
