"the jury is still out" on the possibility that the major producers in OPEC are attempting to regain their power

Gator, I have a hard time with an OPEC conspiracy theory. So they make some marginal projects uneconomical and they are shelved. Big deal. If oil prices then go up, the marginal projects start up again.
Meanwhile, OPEC loses hundreds of billions from low oil prices. Quite an expensive lesson. I think the real problem is virulent distrust among OPEC members. No one wants to make real cuts because they assume other members will cheat and take their customers.
