According to Reuters expert Wang Tao, Brent could rise to $49,85 per barrel. The price for WTI (West Texas Intermediate) crude oil futures were down to $47,91 a barrel. It fell 12 cents after reaching $48.30. According to Olivier Jackob from Petromatrix consultancy in Switzerland, prices almost haven’t changed, regarding to the uncertainness about OPEC’s decision. The market has divided in its opinion and prices aren’t moving much. To be remained, the OPEC-led cut of oil production depends on the agreement of Iran and Iraq, which expressed reservations during the negotiations. Many traders see the possibility of reaching an agreement at OPEC, but doubts still remain that decrease of the oil production over 1.2 million bpd may not be achieved. Crude price also will depend on U.S. government data on oil stockpiles, according to an analyst at Commerzbank in Frankfurt, Carsten Fitch. It is expected to be stayed the same. |
