The crude oil prices had fallen for the first time in three sessions while settling Thursday's trade, where New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) incurred losses estimated at 2.5 percent, amid declining demand.
Brent Curde contracts for November's delivery fell by 1.6 percent reaching USD 78.45 dollars per barrel.
