The upcoming Opec meeting on Jun. 5 will see a lot of relatively inexperienced ministers, a stark turnaround in the composition of the group's core leaders compared to the end of last decade. This backdrop makes effective opposition to current policy even less likely. In Vienna, there will only be two survivors -- Saudi Arabia's Ali Naimi and Angola's Jose Botelho de Vasconcelos -- from the organization's historic December 2008 meeting in Oran, when it cut output drastically after the massive price crash that resulted from the global financial crisis. If, as expected, Nigeria's outgoing minister, Diezani Alison- Madueke, doesn't attend, almost half the delegation heads will have been in their positions for less than a year.
