Well, we can't know for sure until after it's happened, but I'm betting the Saudi's are getting close. The Russian picture is a lot less clear. I'm not sure what their starting reserves were, how hard they've been working them, etc. etc. They may be in somewhat better shape. I think they may wind up being part of the last oil producing block.
