Oil Market Update : Epic Research Singapore

Oil futures rallied Monday as the March West Texas Intermediate contract expired and traders bet that crude production may soon show significant declines to help alleviate the global glut of supplies.

Recent data showed a ninth straight weekly decline in the number of active U.S. oil-drilling rigs and a report suggested the market will see a “rebalance” of supply and demand by next year.

March West Texas Intermediate crude CLH6, +6.04%  settled at $31.48 a barrel, up $1.84, or 6.2%, on the New York Mercantile Exchange. That’s a more than two-week high, based on the front-month contracts.

The March WTI contract expired at Monday’s settlement. April crude CLJ6, -1.35% is now the front-month contract. It rose $1.64, or 5.2%, to settle at $33.39.

April Brent crude LCOJ6, -1.35%  on London’s ICE Futures exchange tacked on $1.68, or 5.1%, to end at $34.69 a barrel.
