CHINA-ENERGY-OIL-PRICE-COMMODITIES
This picture taken on February 25, 2009 shows a man riding his scooter ride past oil rigs in Cangzhou, in northern China's Hebei Province, near Bohai Bay, the innermost gulf of the Yellow Sea on the coast of northeast China, where PetroChina and the China National Offshore Oil Corporation (CNOOC) drill for oil. World oil prices tumbled below 45 USD a barrel in Asian trade on March 16 after the OPEC cartel decided not to cut output during a weekend meeting as leaders from the Group of 20 rich and emerging nations (G20) are due to meet in London in April to discuss measures to tackle the world economic slowdown. China has become increasingly keen on seeking overseas natural resources to help fuel and sustain its rapid economic growth while continuing domestic efforts for more oil, from the Taklamakan Desert in the far west province of Xinjiang in Central Asia to the Bohai Sea in the east.
