U.S. Senator Ted Stevens is hopeful that the proposal to drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR) if oil hits $125 per barrel will gain traction with critics of drilling there. Stevens says he believes oil prices will go over $125 this year, especially considering the recent price of oil topping $108 per barrel and the continuing growth of fuel consumption in the developing world.
