London, (Business News Report)||<\/strong> Oil prices have started the week lower, as Brent crude fell more than a dollar to reach $103.2 a barrel.<\/p>\n

Brent crude futures contracts fell slightly in early trading on Monday in Asia.<\/p>\n

The benchmark contracts for Brent crude and West Texas Intermediate crude oil fell by about 13% during the past week.<\/p>\n

Last Thursday, US President Joe Biden announced the withdrawal of one million barrels per day of crude oil for a period of six months, starting in May, to reach 180 million barrels.<\/p>\n

The Japanese Ministry of Industry said that the member states of the International Energy Agency agreed on Friday to the second coordinated withdrawal of oil at an extraordinary meeting.<\/p>\n

Still, \u201cwhen you look at the release from the SPR, there are still a lot of questions about how they\u2019re going to get all that oil out of there,\u201d said Phil Flynn, an analyst at Price Futures Group. \u201cWe\u2019ll have to wait and see.\u201d<\/p>\n

Energy markets around the world were turbulent and raised concerns about global supplies when sanctions against Russia over its invasion of Ukraine disrupted energy supplies and pushed oil prices to nearly $140 a barrel, the highest in nearly 14 years.<\/p>\n

In a related context, the Vitol Group<\/a>, the largest independent oil trading company in the world, commented on the decline in oil prices, saying that prices had reached levels that do not fully reflect the possibilities of disruptions in Russian exports, nor China’s ability to continue to keep the Corona pandemic under control.<\/p>\n

The price of Brent crude rose to $140 a barrel after the Russian military operation in Ukraine at the end of February, but it regressed and lost 13%, last week, to about $104, after the United States announced the withdrawal of strategic reserves to curb the rise in fuel prices.<\/p>\n

\u201cOil feels cheaper than most would\u2019ve predicted,\u201d Mike Muller, Vitol Group\u2019s head of Asia, said Sunday on a podcast produced by Dubai-based consultant and publisher Gulf Intelligence. \u201cOil prices could be higher given the risk of disruption of supplies from Russia. But people are still lost figuring out those numbers.\u201d<\/p>\n

According to Mueller, flows of Russian crude and oil products may decline by between one and three million barrels per day during the third quarter. Usually, the country exports to about 5.7 million barrels per day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
