MOSCOW (Sputnik) — By 17:30 GMT, the Brent crude prices recovered by a little margin since its lowest point earlier in the day, reaching $45.10 per barrel, while WTI prices reached $43.09 per barrel.
Global oversupply and stagnating demand have caused oil prices to plunge from $115 per barrel in June 2014 to less than $30 per barrel in January 2016. Prices recovered amid output outages and growing demand in May, reaching a peak of over $ 50 per barrel in early June.
