Today crude futures saw another significant gain. WTI rose $1.38 since yesterdays close, settling at $53.29 per barrel.

The reason for gains in the Nymex market was attributed to a weakening U.S dollar coupled with North Dakota data showing oil  production fell by 15K barrels per day.

Brent rose 63 cents settling at $58.56 per barrel.

The reason for gains in the Brent market can be attributed to ongoing tensions in Yemen.

Prices in the primary ports were mostly stable but we advise bunker buyers to buy sooner rather than later to minimize risk to the upside.
