[Title] => DOE set to pursue oil search in Malampaya
[Summary] => The Department of Energy (DOE) will continue to pursue oil rim exploration in Malampaya despite criticisms the site may not be commercially viable.
"It is the position of the DOE, barring any other position of participants in the project, to get that oil out, which could be around 20 to 28 million barrels at $50 per barrel – worth $2 billion to the country. We will get it out and use it for the benefit of Filipinos," Energy Undersecretary Peter Abaya said.

[Title] => Oil prices likely to soften — DOE
[Summary] => Oil companies may likely reduce anew prices of their pump products this week with the softening of prices in the global crude market, a ranking energy official said.
Energy Undersecretary Peter Abaya has expressed optimism that oil firms will roll back their pump prices despite recent pronouncements by some small oil players that they expect a price increase soon after they implemented a P1 per liter rollback last week.
Abaya said diesel price, however, may remain at its current level.
