Oil prices near $100pb as US oil reserves dip to a 40-year low<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\nBrent futures reached a new 10-month high of $97.46pb, gaining 0.94% on September 28, 2023. This notable rise in oil price was driven by a 2.5mbpd decrease in US crude inventories. Moreover, the uptick in price was also fueled by worries about the supply cuts from OPEC+, especially Russia and Saudi Arabia.<\/p>\n
In the near term, tight global oil supply is projected to bolster oil prices to $100pb benchmark.<\/p>\n
