Oil prices debated by OPEC in two day meeting
OPEC opens a two day pricing session with ministers split yet predicted to reach a unanimous decision. Venezuela's Energy and Mines Minister Valentin Hernandez Acosta led last minute talks to bridge gaps. Reports say hikes up to 23 percent are considered while some push for a price freeze through 1978. The base price stands at 12.70 per 42 gallon barrel and a rise could lift US pump prices.
