Crude price in the global market
Despite unchanged fuel prices in the country, crude oil has seen several fluctuations in the global market as well. A slight softening is being seen in the price of crude oil in the international market. After the decline, Brent futures gained 30 cents, or 0.3%, to $87.66 a barrel by 0113 GMT, while U.S. crude rose 21 cents to $81.22 per barrel, a 0.3% gain. Both benchmarks had gained more than 1% on Thursday. Brent was on track to post its second weekly rise if gains held. Improving gross domestic product and inflation data in the US provided hope that the Federal Reserve could slow its pace of interest rate hikes, reducing fear of curtailment in economic activity and consequent oil demand.
