Actually, though, OPEC is pretty level headed about where to keep their pricing. If they wanted to price gouge, they certainly could.

As I understand it, what is driving the price up is speculation and the emergence of China as an industrial nation.

I don't think they (OPEC) want other nations looking very hard at alternative energy sources -- and there's a finite amount of oil left in the world.
