ABU DHABI--BP PLC (BP.LN) sees oil prices staying in the
$60-a-barrel range for at least the next three years as supply
continues to outstrip demand, Michael Townshend, the company's
Middle East chief, said Tuesday.
"In terms of supply demand you don't see demand exceeding supply
until the back end of next year. When that does happen ... you
would still need to work off stocks which could take another couple
of years," Mr. Townshend said in a news briefing on the sidelines
of a conference in Abu Dhabi. He said the view didn't take into
account political shifts such as the potential impact of returning
Iranian barrels.
