OPEC holds objectives oil production, sees the price of a barrel $70-80

Cold weather forecasts in America and Europe as the United States can extend measures stimulus - weakening of the dollar and boost the appeal of commodities as an alternative investment - week last speculation driven by price of oil to a maximum of two years.

The restoration of the fragile global economy and supplies further will, however, prevent the award of the arrow, OPEC said in a statement Saturday.

"Right now the market is very comfortable for consumers," Abdulla El-Badri, the Secretary General of OPEC, said at the meeting in Quito (Ecuador). OPEC has 6 m to 7 m barrels of spare capacity per day, Mr. El-Badri said, and he acted to increase production until the decline of these levels.

"The question they have watched was $90 is a blip or a trend," stated Bill Farren-Price, founder of consultant Petroleum Policy Intelligence, told Bloomberg. "They took notice that there are one-time factors such as the snap cold, a weak dollar, which stand in the new year."

The "increase in annual average oil demand in 2011 is likely to be lower in 2010," said OPEC. Lower demand will accompany "difficult risks to the global economic recovery, including the negative effect of possible conflicts of the currency and fears of a second banking crisis in Europe, which would have a negative impact on the demand for oil."

Saudi Arabian Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi said that the supply and demand are "balance", and $ 70 to $ 80 is "a good price" for oil.

World oil demand growth is expected to slow 1 2 8pc 6pc in 2011 this year, according to the International Agency for energy.

OPEC has kept the limits of production at 24.845 million barrels per day since December 2008, when he announced larger reduction in quotas output never demand collapsed and prices collapsed at the beginning of the global economic crisis.

OPEC provides 40pc of oil in the world. The next scheduled meeting is in June at the siege of Vienna from OPEC.

"If they begin to produce significantly more, implicitly or explicitly start sending a signal on the market that they want to stop the price,"said Mike Wittner, head of research of the oil company market General SA in New York.""

"They seem to have enough oil, inventories are still high and crude stocks especially to the United States are still very much.

Questor share Tip: production concerns take shine off Petropavlovsk

Questor says HOLD

Firstly, a delay in receiving equipment digging has developed its year-round production targets is risque.En, many analysts in the city are waiting now that target throughout the year the group is not satisfied.

Friday, the company said that he was "seeking" achieve its objective 636,500-670 000 ounces of gold before goal was already reduced to August of 760 000 – 670 000. Course, delays of equipment are by the course in the development of any mine - and are bound to be hiccups on the road – but it is disappointing after the target was cut in August.

Petropavlovsk produces approximately 140 000 ounces of gold in the third quarter, bringing the total production in the first nine months of 305 000 ounces.It is clear that the lower end of its goal of 670 000 during three months meeting will be a défi.Néanmoins company producer third remains the Russia gold.

Second disappointment of the company refers to the list of Hong Kong of his unit of iron ore, which used to appear as Aircom United Kingdom.Hong Kong listed company will be called IRC.

Last week, IRC was reducing the size of its initial offer of Hong Kong (IPO) of half-$249 m (£ 156 m) .the demand for shares was not as strong only the company had hoped.

"Hong Kong Retail offer was sursouscrit.La total demand of investors exceeds the minimum requirements of IRC for actions that will be issued by it, but did not meet higher expectations of the company" Petropavlovsk said Friday.

It is planned company now raise 240 m $ and its actions on 20pc below the lower end of the expected range of prix.La society was expected to increase more than 500 m $, but raised amount should always be in advance the

220 m $ Group paid for Aricom when he brought it in the group in February this year.

This means the list, which was scheduled for October 14 will be slightly retardée.Il is now scheduled on 19 October.

Questor was surprised by the lack of institutional - demand because the iron ore company seems to have a solid future.It should be a low-cost producer and is located in the vicinity of the mills beyond China's border with the Russie.Cependant, institutions may have been developed by the fact that IRC is not yet profitable and there has been a raft of competition for money in the end IP offices.

Of course, the problems of production and the delay in the IPOs of the unity of iron ore are décevants.Cependant, the Quaestor still sees a long-term value in actions.Comme said JP Morgan in a note to clients last week: "even if we factor in a complete failure to achieve its growth objectives, multiple of Petropavlovsk would still convincing."

19 Analysts covering actions and monitored by Bloomberg, 12 were buy rating on the shares six hold and one sell .the ' goal average price is £ 14.95 a share.

Shares are trading on earnings from December 2010 multiple 13.7, falling to 9.8 just the year prochaine.Il is a substantial reduction from other producers of metal précieux.Les actions have sharply since a month after having been tipped title as a purchase up to £ juin.Cependant file, once production begins on foot, the market should be more confident with its prospects and recent falls should be reversed.

Actions were Bonhomme firstly as a purchase on 21 July of the year last p 626.2 and 60pc to a market of 27pc era.

Questor is optimistic about prospects in the long term for the group, but until the production situation becomes more clear actions are now a dock.
