Oil Lower As US Rig Count Rises

Crude oil futures fell during noon trade in the domestic market on Monday as investors and speculators exited positions in the energy commodity as a fifth straight weekly rise in US oil rig count signaled higher production in the coming months, exacerbating fears over a global supply glut. Industry-research firm Baker Hughes said that the number of rigs drilling for oil in the US rose by 3 to 374 last week.


Meanwhile, a smaller than expected gain in US GDP in Q2 dimmed the demand outlook for the fuel in the world’s biggest economy which grew at an annualized pace of 1.2 % in the April-June 2016 quarter, following a 0.8% advance in Q1.

  At the MCX, crude oil futures for August 2016 contract is trading at Rs 2,777 per barrel, down by 0.18 per cent, after opening at Rs 2,794, against a previous close of Rs 2,782. It touched the intra-day low of Rs 2,774.
