Again, ofcourse the oil demand will be higher, and ofcourse the saudis and oil companies do not want to increase their production or refining capabilities to a point where it will seriously hurt the price (no reason to kill the golden goose), however they must still keep the ecnonmy going, because without a working world ecnonmy oil demand will halt.

So for your $500/barrel might work on a chart, but oil/energy as you said is like no other product out there... wars have been started for less ;-))
