ABUJA (Reuters) - The global oil market is not undersupplied and high prices are being caused by speculators, Nigeria's state-oil company said on Thursday, after the International Energy Agency (IEA) decided to release stockpiles.

"The actions of speculators and hedge fund managers have over-heated oil prices unnecessarily."
