Crude oil  1946-2018 | Data | Chart | Calendar | Forecast | News

In addition, US sanctions hit Iranian crude exports, with some traders expecting a jump in crude to around $90 a barrel by Christmas and to $100 in early 2019 once sanctions are fully implemented from November. The price of crude oil rose 1.7% to $71.9 a barrel around 9:30 AM London time and Brent went up 1.9% to $80.3.
