VIENNA, Austria - The world has tapped only 18 percent of the total
global supply of crude, a leading Saudi oil executive said Wednesday,
challenging the notion that supplies are petering out.
Abdallah S. Jumah, president and CEO of the state-owned Saudi
Arabian Oil Co., known better as Aramco, said the world has the
potential of 4.5 trillion barrels in reserves - enough to power the
globe at current levels of consumption for another 140 years.
