<p class="MsoNormal">Andy Rowell - "<a href="http://priceofoil.org/2008/05/08/oil-price-may-hit-200-a-barrel/">Oil Price 'May Hit $200 A Barrel'</a>"</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">"Do you remember the days when oil was only $100? Although there has been  speculation in recent days concerning the oil price, one of the most  authoritative predictions so far has the price of crude oil at $200 within as  little as six months.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The prediction by Goldman Sachs was made as benchmark US  light crude passed the $123 mark for the first time.  Surging demand was  increasingly likely to create a “super-spike” past $200 in six months-to-two  years’ time, said <a href="http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7387203.stm" onclick="javascript:pageTracker._trackPageview('/outgoing/news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/7387203.stm');">Goldman Sachs</a>.<span id="more-2711"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Oil prices have now risen by 25% in the last four months and  400% since 2001.  Soaring global demand for oil is being led by China’s  continuing economic boom and, to a lesser extent, by India’s rapid economic  expansion.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Both are now increasingly competing with the US, the European  Union and Japan for the lion’s share of global oil production."</p>
