Oil is rising supported by declining US crude inventories

Today, oil prices continued to rise, backed by a sharp decline in US oil inventories,
as well as a better estimate of commodity demand growth this year
by the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC).

The price of North Sea oil mix Brent for June delivery was $ 64.12 a barrel,
by an increase of 45 cents from the previous trading session.

The price of US light oil for May delivery reached $ 60.64 a barrel,
by an increase of 46 cents compared to the previous trading session.

The mood in markets was supported by the latest monthly report of OPEC,
as OPEC + raised their estimates for oil demand in 2021, with an estimate that global economic recovery will continue.

The organization stated that demand for oil will increase by 5.95 million barrels a day this year.

Compared to previous appreciation a month ago, this represents an increase of 70,000 barrels a day.

The organization estimates that world crude oil inventories may decline,
despite the fact that more OPEC crude oil is expected to enter the market by 2 million barrels a day.

which stated that US oil reserves declined by 3.6 million barrels last week.

expectations in some countries around the world, as closure restrictions and stricter constraints on the work of economies.
