Oil costs surge due to provision side fears


(MENAFN) Oil costs witnessed slight surges in early exchange on Monday around market provision doubts in advance of the OPEC+ gathering on the 5th of October.

International main Brent crude exchanged at USD87.27 a barrel at 09.33 AM regional time (0633 GMT) for a 2.50 percent earn from the ending price of USD85.14 per barrel in the prior exchange session.

American benchmark West Texas Intermediate (WTI), selling at USD81.59 a barrel at the same time, surged 2.64 percent following the prior session ended at USD79.49 per barrel.

Financiers are anticipating the result of the OPEC+ gathering on the 5th of October, when the group is estimated to cut production in November.

“Brent crude has fallen over 22 percent in Q3, raising concerns among the OPEC+ alliance,” Australia and New Zealand Banking Group (ANZ) Commodity Strategist Daniel Hynes stated in an emailed message.

Hynes stated that “The group has already signaled that it is willing to intervene to support prices. We suspect it will be moved to counteract the excessive bearishness in the market by announcing a cut to production.”
