“The price should be $100 per barrel, this is a fair price,” he said.

Oil prices have recently fallen due to increased oil production by the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) countries. At their meeting in Vienna on November 27, OPEC members are expected to announce whether they will cut output to prop up prices amid worsening forecasts for consumption and the significant global increase in oil production.
