Crude prices dipped on Tuesday as another slump in China's manufacturing sector outweighed overnight reports of falling US and OPEC production and strong oil demand. US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures were trading at USD 33.63 per barrel at 0122 GMT, down 12 cents cents from their last settlement. But they were still up 30 percent from February 11, when the contract hit a 2016-low of just over USD 26 a barrel, a level last seen in 2003.
