Effective increase of ~200 kbpd will produce a selloff? Anything is possible, but the name of the game is show me the stock levels and more specfically the product levels.

Vienna, Sept. 10 (Bloomberg) -- The following are comments by Roger Diwan, director of global oil markets at the Washington- based Petroleum Finance Co. on a decision by the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries to raise output quotas by 800,000 barrels a day.

``This will probably produce a little sell off.

``At best they'll bring the price back to the high end of the band (of $22 to $28 a barrel).

``This is a good wait-and-see position for OPEC.

``800,000 barrels a day is a little more than the market expected and still less than what would trash the market. The Saudis can still act independently if needed.

``You might have a couple of hundred thousand new barrels a day,'' he said, estimating OPEC is currently overproducing at 600,000 barrels.
