"We hope the price will moderate and we will work towards moderating the price," Naimi told reporters when asked whether he would like to see oil prices fall to $100.

 

He said Saudi Arabia would pump as much oil as needed by its customers.

 

Brent crude oil was trading around $112 a barrel on Tuesday.
