The continued impact of Hurricane Francine on Gulf oil output sent crude oil prices climbing on Monday.
Reports indicated at least 12% of crude production and 16% of natural gas output in the Gulf of Mexico was still offline because of the storm that hit the southern states last Wednesday.
West Texas Intermediate crude futures for October rose $1.44 or 2.1% and settled at $70.09 on the New York Mercantile Exchange, the first time it’s been back to the $70 level in a few weeks.
Global standard Brent crude went up $1.14 or 1.59% to finish at $72.75 a barrel on ICE Futures Europe.
The majority of Oklahoma energy stocks recorded gains in Monday’s trading including a nearly 6% jump for Vital Energy. On the losing side, Canoo plunged nearly 18%.
