Crude Oil Prices
Oil prices gained about 2 per cent on Friday as Iraq voiced support for OPEC+’s oil cuts ahead of a meeting in two weeks and as some speculators covered massive short positions ahead of weekend uncertainty. Still, prices settled with weekly losses of 4 per cent, their third straight weekly decline.
In the US, energy firms cut the number of oil rigs operating for a second week in a row to the lowest since January 2022, energy services firm Baker Hughes said. The rig count points to future output. Brent futures rose $1.42, or 1.8 per cent, to settle at $81.43 a barrel, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude rose $1.43, or 1.9 per cent, to settle at $77.17.
Brent and WTI notched their third straight weekly losses for the first time since May, although both benchmarks exited technically oversold territory.
Why do fuel prices vary across states?
The rates for each day, whether new or unchanged, are announced at 6 am on the day. These, however, vary from state to state; this is due to criteria such as Value Added Tax (VAT), freight charges, local taxes, etc.
