    THE world's biggest oil exporter Saudi Arabia declared this week that ultra-low oil prices were "irrational" as crude hit new 12-year lows under US$27 on the global supply glut.

    The market's dramatic slump culminated on Wednesday with New York crude collapsing to US$26.19 per barrel - a point last seen in May 2003.
