OIL: Oil continues to edge higher on the back of previous production cuts and
the stabilisation in demand as Europe emerges from lockdown.
- Brent crude trades at USD42.88/b up from a morning low of USD41.81, while WTI
has inched up to USD39.94/b from USD38.81/b.
- Saudi Arabia is reported to have significantly increased prices for some of
its crude exports in a bid to prop up revenues.
- The move follows news over the weekend that Russia and OPEC have agreed to
extend production cuts by an additional month as a part of coordinated efforts
to stabilise the market.
- Nonetheless, there remain some concerns over the sustainability of aggregate
cuts if some members do not fully comply with the agreement.
