At a Glance: The crude collapse
The price of West Texas Intermediate (WTI) oil briefly dipped below US$30/b on Tuesday for the first time since 2003, making many forecasts of US$40/b for this year look too optimistic.
Some observers have considered US$30/b a breaking point for even the most hardy oil exporters. But will OPEC's major players – particularly the Middle Eastern bloc – finally relent in their battle against US shale producers and turn off the taps?
BNamericas' wide coverage of the rout explains how Latin America's oil and gas industry has been affected and highlights what some companies and governments are doing to avoid major damage.
