Investing.com – Oil prices were higher on Friday but are on track to post a third straight weekly loss amid concerns over Chinese demand growth amid uncertainty over the price cap on Russian crude exports.
As of 09:15 ET (14:15 GMT), futures were trading up 0.9% to $78.61 a barrel, while the contract was up 0.3% to $85.62.
Both contracts are expected to fall over 1% this week, the third negative week in a row after hitting 10-month lows earlier in the year.
