President Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono of Indonesia has said that his country was considering quitting OPEC because it was no longer a net oil exporter. “Our wells are drying,” he said in a nationally televised speech, adding that the country needed to concentrate on increasing domestic production, which has dropped to less than a million barrels a day even as consumption rises. The government has opened talks on whether it should continue to stay with OPEC or withdraw “until we reach a point where we deserve to rejoin that organization,” Yudhoyono said. The country of 235 million people is the only OPEC member in Southeast Asia.
