Oil traded near the highest level in
four months, after a seventh weekly gain, as signs of economic growth that may
boost fuel emand countered speculation supplies are ample.
West Texas Intermediate crude was
little changed after climbing 0.3 percent last week. Chinese industrial
companies’ profits rose for a fourth month in December, the National Bureau of
Statistics in Beijing said yesterday.
U.S. government reports today may
show durable goods orders and pending homes sales advanced last month, according
to Bloomberg News surveys. The oil market is “well supplied,” Khalid al-Falih,
Saudi Arabian Oil Co.’s chief executive, said Jan. 26 in Davos, Switzerland.
“The outlook on demand seems to be
more positive,” Robin Mills, the head of consulting at Dubai-based Manaar
Energy Consulting and Project Management and a former Middle East specialist at
Royal Dutch Shell Co., said by telephone Jan. 27. “Last week the outlook seemed
to be looking up.”
Crude for March delivery was at
$95.91 a barrel, up 3 cents, in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile
Exchange at 8:09 a.m. Singapore time. The contract fell 7 cents to $95.88 on
Jan. 25. WTI has posted the longest run of weekly gains since April 2009 and
closed at $96.24 on Jan. 22, the highest since Sept. 17.
Brent for March settlement rose 3
cents to $113.31 a barrel on the London-based ICE Futures Europe exchange. The
European benchmark contract was at a premium of $17.39 to West Texas
Intermediate futures for the same month. The gap was $17.40 on Jan. 25.
U.S. durable goods orders probably
climbed 2 percent in December from the prior year after rising 0.7 percent in
November, according to the median estimate in a Bloomberg survey. Pending home
sales probably gained 12.5 percent, a separate survey shows.
