Old Tele man -

I'm trying to extrapolate reasonable conclusions from the graph :

- Iran's output is falling *before* the Shah is toppled in 1979
- in 1980 Saudi Arabian output falls, maybe because of OPEC quotas.
- in 1988 Saudi Arabian output picks up to replace(?) falling Soviet output.
- USA slow and steady decrease
- China slow and steady increase
