It gets interesting.

1.) OPEC manages to cough up a little extra, but:

``What will happen after the OPEC meeting is that they will all be producing at capacity,'' said Kenneth Deffeyes, professor emeritus of petroleum geology at Princeton University and author of the book Hubbert's Peak: The Impending World Oil Shortage.

``OPEC is irrelevant,'' Deffeyes said in an interview in New York. Saudi Arabia has little or no production capacity beyond what it has been using in recent months, and pumping fields faster may damage them, said Deffeyes, who predicts that global oil output has peaked and will begin to decline.
