WTI Crude: Oil prices rose on Friday as U.S. oil producers in the Gulf of Mexico cut more than half their output in the face of a tropical storm and as tensions continued in the Middle East.
WTI crude futures were up 34 cents at $60.54 a barrel. The international benchmark settled down 0.7% on Thursday after hitting its highest since May 30 at $67.52 a barrel. Photo: Pixabay
