Oil prices rose today, over attacks on Iranian oil tanker, and easing tensions between the US and China. While Brent crude was traded at $60.60 a barrel, the US WTI crude futures were priced at $54.79 a barrel. Investigations are currently underway over the attack on an Iranian oil tanker, off Saudi Arabia’s coast.
