Don't be fooled by the current low Oil price.

Oil rose toward $48 a barrel on Friday ahead of OPEC's Sunday meeting in Vienna, after two volatile days of trade this week.

The producer group gathers in the Austrian capital this weekend to discuss its output policy and perhaps adjust the 4.2 million barrels per day cut it implemented last September in reaction to the depth and speed of the global financial crisis.

"OPEC has done everything they can to set the market up for some kind of cut to try and push the price a bit higher,"

said Simon Wardell, director of global oil analysis and forecasting at IHS Global Insight.

"But it might be that what we get in Vienna is talk of implementing full compliance of previous cuts before we get to the next one, to try and give the hard pressed economy of the world a respite,"

he said.

Oil has hovered between $33 and $50 since the beginning of the year after OPEC implemented and began showing compliance to output cuts put in place to arrest its slide off last July's peak above $147 a barrel.

When Oil skyrockets again you will see a double whammy in the world economy. My advise is to start preparing for the switch to more efficient Cars, Vans and Trucks. Invest in Telematics if you are a fleet operator to push more efficiency gains and optimise your fleet to better performing vehicles.

If you are an individual then now is the time to 'greensize' your vehicles whilst there are great deals in the automotive sector.
