Oil climbs toward $61 on stronger stocks

Strength in Asian, European markets pushes up price of crude.

March 6 2007: 6:40 AM EST


LONDON (Reuters) -- Oil climbed away from $60 a barrel Tuesday, drawing strength from a rise in Asian and European stocks after five days of losses.
Crude slid more than two percent the previous session after a slide on equities markets raised concerns that world economic growth could slow and fuel demand falter.

Oil nears $61 on fuel stocks decline fears

Refinery problems, cold spell diminish stockpiles ahead of summer demand.

March 7 2007: 5:48 AM EST


LONDON (Reuters) -- Oil rose toward $61 a barrel Wednesday as the prospect of further declines in gasoline inventories in the United States outweighed concern over the health of its economy.
Oil has proven relatively immune to the selloff in global equities. At near $61, U.S. crude is more than $10 up on mid-January levels and triple the level from the start of 2002.

$61.02 at 09:05 +.33 Inventories due at 10:30 today. We don't need any surprises!:notrust:

Supply data will be a key focus Wednesday with separate reports due at 10.30 a.m. Eastern from the Energy Department and the American Petroleum Institute.

Analysts at Wachovia Corp. expect to see a climb of 2.5 million for crude supplies, while Fimat is looking for a rise of 1.6 million. A survey of analysts conducted by Platts shows that the market expects, on average, a climb of 1.8 million barrels.
Distillate supplies likely dropped by 3.2 million, Wachovia said. They likely fell by 1.8 million, according to Fimat. And Platts' poll predicts a decline of 2.3 million for the oil-product, which includes heating oil.

Castro's revenge: The Cuban oil rush

Seventy miles from Florida, a Cuban oil rush is underway - and U.S. companies can't join in, says Fortune's Carolyn Whelan.

(Fortune Magazine) -- Sometime later this year, less than 70 miles from Florida, a consortium of Spanish, Indian and Norwegian companies will likely start drilling for oil. It could mark the beginning of a Cuban oil rush - one that American oil companies won't be able to join, despite their proximity to the action.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Natural-gas futures fell Thursday to their lowest level in a week with traders expecting a U.S. government report to show a sizable decline in supplies of the fuel in the wake of wintry weather in much of the nation last week.

LAS VEGAS (CNNMoney.com) -- So maybe it was part of his job to be paranoid, but former CIA head R. James Woolsey takes no comfort in the nation's reliance on oil and other fossil fuels.

SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) -- Crude-oil futures fell to their lowest level in almost three weeks Monday, ready to register a third-losing session with warmer temperatures in parts of the U.S. leading heating-fuel prices lower and key oil producers unlikely to take any action to stem the slide in prices at a meeting later this week.

Average gasoline price rises 20 cents

Demand could rise further as daylight saving time means more driving time.

March 12 2007: 7:28 AM EDT

NEW YORK (Reuters) -- Average U.S. retail gasoline prices rose 20 cents to $2.55 a gallon, and demand could rise further in coming weeks as daylight savings time gives Americans more time to drive, an industry analyst said Sunday.
