Crude oil prices finished down on Thursday—so did most Oklahoma energy stocks. And for the first time in weeks, world oil prices dropped below $90 a barrel.

West Texas Intermediate crude, considered the US benchmark, finished down $1.19 or 1.4% to $85.02 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.
Global benchmark Brent crude dropped 74 cents or 0.8% to finish at $89.74 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe.
