This smells like an OPEC thing to me... If they keep production flat for a while they can drive up the price per barrel as we have seen. I will bet that if the world economy begins to slide to a recession and therefore a demand drop, all of a sudden huge increases in output will happen and the price will be protected at something like $80 a barrel. remember we are dealing with a cartel and not with true market forces here...
