But output is forecast officially to fall to 710,000 barrels a day this year from 816,000 b/d in 1999. On current trends, Ecopetrol is set to stop exports and start buying from multinational partners to meet local demand by 2003.

I wonder how long it will take for the idiots in Washington to get it. What is NOT needed is more political pressure on OPEC. Can't squeeze blood from a stone, after all. Oil from an empty reservoir, neither.

C'est la vie
