Unfortunately with Venezuela falling down and Iraqi production soon to hit a speed bump there is not much the rest of OPEC can do since they are producing at maximum capacity.

Iraq's current production is insignificant, Venezuela is coming back on line, and the Saudis have plenty of surplus production capacity. I don't see any reason to get hysterical over the possibility of this war causing a major oil supply interruption. Probability seems very low to me.

In the article about Abraham on the plane with OPEC, I felt like the Strategic Petroleum Reserve had volume enough to effect prices. Is the oil in the salt mines ever considered in pricing?

Is this what you mean when you say our goals are the same?
