Crude oil

Crude oil price was slightly higher on November 24 as market participants are keen ahead of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) meeting next week. It is been expected that the cartel would extend supply cuts to support crude prices. On Friday, Benchmark Brent crude was trading at $81.43 per barrel. The prices have decreased by almost 0.7 per cent to end near $81 a barrel on November 23.

The overabundance of supplies, particularly from non-OPEC countries, has exerted downward pressure on oil prices, sparking speculation about potential extensions or deepening of supply cuts by OPEC+.

For India, crude oil imports have increased by 2.2 per cent in October and by 0.6 per cent in the April-October period, data from Petroleum Planning and Analysis Cell stated. The jump in the country's fuel consumption in recent months is due to increased industrial activity.
