Venezuela seeks OPEC allies
Article Abstract:
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is planning to request Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) to set long term global oil prices at $50 per barrel in 2006, ensuring the continuation of the current high oil price environment. Current average market levels are around USD65 per barrel, but setting the target reserve price at USD50 per barrel would lock in substantial profits for oil-producing countries.
