Kuwait oil price up to $45.38 pb

The price of Kuwaiti oil was up by 86 cents to $45.38 per barrel Friday after being at $44.52 pb the day before, said the Kuwait Petroleum Corporation (KPC) yesterday. At the global level, the prices were up due to data connected with the decline of US crude reserves. The price of the Brent crude was up to $48.91 per barrel, the same case with the West Texas Intermediate, which stood at $46.62 pb. — KUNA
