Crude oil reached a new record high price of 120.93 dollars a barrel on fbesday as concerns resurfaced over tight supplies and a struggling US currency, analysts said.
After setting a fresh all-time peak. New York's main oil futures contract, light sweet crude for June delivery, stood at 119.92 dollars per barrel, down five cents as traders banked their profits.
London's Brent North Sea crude also reached a historic pinnacle on Ttiesday as it touched 119.07 dollars. The contract for June later stood at 118.10 dollars per barrel, unchanged from Monday.
"Crude futures hit fresh all time highs (on Tbesday) as concerns about suppiy disruptions in Nigeria, a weaker dollar and now also Iran continue to provide plenty of ammu -nition." said Sucden analyst Michael Davies.
Nigerian militants attacked an oil ship off the coast of the west African country and took two people hostage over the weekend.
Nigeria, Africa's largest oil producer. has seen an upsurge in violent attacks on the oil and related industry in the past two years.
Events surrounding Iran, the world's fourth biggest oil producer, gave added support to prices on TUesday.
Iran said Monday it would reject any offer that violates its right to the full nuclear fuel cycle after world powers said they had prepared a new package to end the atomic crisis.
The West fears Iran could use uranium enrichment to make atomic weapons But Iran denies it wants to do this and insists it has a right to enrichment to make nuclear fuel as a signatory to the nuclear Non - Proliferation ’Beaty.
Oil prices also continued to profit on Tuesday from (he weak dollar, which helps boost demand for commodities priced in the US unit as they initially become cheaper for foreign buyers.
"US economic data recently has surprised to the upside, with the non-farms and unemployment data on Friday being better than expected." noted Davies from the Sucden brokerage in London.
"However, many would argue that the US economic outlook remains bleak and that recent dollar strength may just be a correction."
The recent record run in oil prices has sparked widespread international concern among consumer nations.
Kuwaiti Oil Minister Mohammad al-Olaim last week said that Opec may hold an extraordinary meeting on oil prices before a scheduled conference in September and did not appear to rule out higher production.
I lowever, Libya's acting oil minis -ter Chukri Ghanem recently indicated that the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries could not pump more crude.
On Tuesday, the Indonesian government said it was considering withdrawing from Opec, which produces about 40 percent of the world's oil.
Indonesia is (he only Southeast Asian member of the oil cartel but declining production levels have turned it into a net importer.
