That happened because suppliers refused to let their profits drop, so some began selling and many kept the prices above market price. In turn that created a crisis.

Yet in 1998 the oil price tanked to the lowest point since the 1970s oil crisis. Remember, Russia went to the wall with a currency crisis in the same year. Within 12 months they were doing okay because the prices recovered. Within a few years, the prices doubled.

Saudi Arabia over producing oil has little to do with the 1980s oil glut.
