Area ministers consider a 4 cent to 7 cent cut per 42 gallon barrel with each 1 cent drop equaling 2.4 cents per gallon at the pump. OPEC announced a $5.50 per barrel cut while two U.S. stations report ongoing price reductions. Pump prices at Ron's Crown Station and Forty West Gulf hover under a dollar, with further declines anticipated as refinements move through the system.
