Crude Pushes Higher

Jun 26th, 2009 | By Doug Casey | Category: Oil Investment & Alternative Energy

In the energy market on Thursday, crude for August delivery was higher, closing at $70.23/barrel, up $1.56. July reformulated gasoline rose 5.58 cents, to $1.8983/gallon.
“It seems oil is rallying with stocks,” said Zachary Oxman, managing director at TrendMax Futures. “There are no major supply demand issues present.”

However, traders were also reacting to the weaker-than-expected inventory report from Wednesday, and to further violence in Nigeria.

The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta, or MEND, claimed responsibility yesterday for a predawn attack against Royal Dutch Shell (NYSE:RDS.A/RDS.B) facilities, calling it a warning to Russia not to invest in the African country’s oil and gas industry, according to Dow Jones Newswires.

The attack on the Bille-Krakama pipeline, which feeds the key Bonny export terminal in southern Rivers State, was carried out to coincide with a visit to Nigeria by Russian President Dmitry Medvedevk, MEND reportedly said.
