OPEC: Crude Demand To Decline

The global oil cartel OPEC has predicted a drop in demand for crude as motorists were today threatened with the prospect of paying $8 a litre for petrol within 10 years.

The reports came as prices at the pump in many major cities hovered near record highs of $1.75 a litre.

In its World Oil Outlook 2008, released in Vienna overnight, the Organisation of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) predicted demand for crude would fall to as little as 31 million barrels a day in 2012, a figure below 2006 output.
