Globally, oil prices traded higher in March 2024 as compared to the previous month on a tighter supply outlook and heightened geopolitical risk.
Crude prices settled at a four-month high during mid-March as the International Energy Agency projected a tighter market and also raised its own demand growth this year.
WTI crude was trading at $83.17 an ounce, up 2.24 per cent. While Brent was trading 1.86 per cent higher at $87.0.
Brent averaged around $84.25 a barrel in March 2024 as compared to $81.3 in the previous month. This $3 increase in average price in March is likely to be reflected in April prices which will announced either on Saturday or Sunday.
Residents in UAE and businesses look forward to monthly petrol and diesel rates to prepare their fuel budgets.
