`
WTI crude oil Prices closed higher last week as supplies tightened
and the White House signaled progress on U.S.-China trade talks.
Futures in New York rose for a fourth day. U.S. crude stockpiles fell
for the first time in six weeks, the EIA said Wednesday, while a
critical North Sea oil pipeline was briefly shut Thursday. The U.S. and
China “seem to be on the glide path” to a possible signing of phase
one of a trade deal in Chile next month, a White House adviser told.
On weekly basis Crude closed higher 5.46 % on NYMEX & 4.86 %
lower on MCX.

Natural Gas on weekly basis closed lower 1.87 % on NYMEX & 2.17
% higher on MCX. The move came As The U.S. EIA inventory build of
87 BCF places stockpiles into a surplus versus the five-year average;
withdrawals however could begin as early as the last week of
October. Despite a triple-digit inventory build and week/week
increase in production, weather rules and stronger evidence of a
colder late October potentially persisting into November drive prices
higher last week.
