description He also noted that the price of Asian Dubai crude in May was only $25.57 per barrel while the average to date is $26.69 per barrel, for a difference of $1.12 per barrel. Also, the foreign exchange rate in May was around P50.53 to $1. Now, it is P51.58 to $1, he added. "There is something very irregular here. To begin with, these oil companies are supposed to have a crude oil inventory good for 90 days.

Documents at the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) show otherwise, he said.
