Breitling Oil and Gas CEO Predicts High Gasoline Prices Through 2011

IRVING, Texas, April 26, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Gasoline prices are expected to remain high in the near term, says Chris Faulkner, CEO of Breitling Oil and Gas Corporation. "The last time we saw these prices was post-Hurricane Katrina and everyone was taken off guard. The difference today is that gas prices have increased gradually and Americans seem better equipped to handle them even if they don't like them."

United States national pump prices averaged $3.89 a gallon last week, the most expensive since August 2008, according to the Energy Information Administration.

Faulkner said, "The likelihood of a national average decline on gas prices is extremely slim." Faulkner added, "I would not be surprised if we see $5 per gallon gas by the end of the year and that is something the American people may need to be prepared to deal with."

Faulkner is preparing to keynote the Annual International Symposium of Unconventional Oil & Gas in China on May 17, 2011.
