Petroleum prices slowly gains their positions
Yesterday`s losses have not prevented to return some positions to petroleum prices because of approaching American sanctions against Iran. The last in focus again. Such situation has allowed flotation of oil to change their indicators.
Brent oil futures for December lost more than 4% and has traded at $76.44 per barrel. The day before it fell 5% to $75,88 per barrel which had been the lowest result since the first decade of September.
WTI oil futures for December were traded at $66.04 per barrel, but it`s dropped just like Brent by 5% to $65.74 yesterday. New York`s session closed at $66,43 per barrel, despite expectations that it can exceed $66 level again.
Such rally situation was triggered because Saudi Energy Minister Khalid Al-Falih promised to produce oil as much as possible in relation to expected impact of sanctions when he was talking to OPEC. So, in other words, Saudi Arabia is clearly going to take Iran`s place and offset any shortages on the oil markets.
