OPEC Ministers Attend Conference In Iran

ISFAHAN, IRAN - MARCH 15: OPEC President and Kuwaiti Energy Minister Sheikh Ahmad al-Fahd al-Sabah (L) meets Iran's Oil Minister Bijan Namdar Zanganeh on March 15, 2005 in Isfahan, Iran. OPEC Ministers gathered in Isfahan to attend the 135th Organization of Petroleum Countries (OPEC ) Conference on Wednesday 16, 2005. OPEC producers try to bring the oil market under control following near-record high prices caused by heavy demand growth. Saudi Arabia proposed an increase in oil output by 500,000 barrels a day but other OPEC members including Iran warn this may have little effect and prefer to wait for a seasonal decrease in demand.
