This is the first time the global benchmark has breached the $90 level since October 2014.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">US West Texas Intermediate crude contracts rose $2.1, or 2.46%, to $87.72 a barrel.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">US President Joe Biden said he would consider imposing sanctions on President Vladimir Putin if Moscow invaded Ukraine. Western leaders ramped up military preparations and drew up plans to protect Europe from a potential energy supply crisis.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Concerns about the Middle East also escalated on Monday, when Yemen&#8217;s Iran-aligned Houthi movement launched a missile attack on a base in the United Arab Emirates.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Later in the day, Brent crude contracts ended the trading session up $1.76, or 2%, to record at a settlement of $89.96 a barrel, after it crossed the $90 level for the first time since October 2014.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\">Oil prices gave up some of their gains in post-settlement trading. They fell along with other high-risk assets, such as stocks, after investors interpreted the comments of the Chairman of the Board of Directors of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bnreport.com\/en\/us-economy-future\/\">US<\/a> Federal Reserve Jerome Powell at a news conference.
