 Oil quotes are rising on Thursday due to fears of a decrease in supply on the world market with a sharp reduction in US inventories.

 Libyan production fell due to political protests, while European countries continue to discuss the possibility of limiting the import of Russian energy resources.  Thus, German Foreign Minister Annalena Burbock said on April 20 that Germany would completely stop importing Russian oil by the end of the year.

 By 8:15 am Moscow time, June Brent futures rose by $1.13 (1.06%) on the London ICE Futures exchange by $1.13 (1.06%) against Wednesday's closing price and traded at $107.93 per barrel, Interfax reports.  During the previous session, Brent fell by $0.45 (0.4%) to $106.8 per barrel.

 June futures for WTI by that moment were rising in price in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) by $0.99 (0.97%), up to $103.18 per barrel. On Wednesday, the contract rose by $0.14 (0.1%) to $102.19 per barrel.

 US commercial oil inventories last week fell by 8.02 million barrels, the fastest pace since January 2021, to 413.73 million barrels, data from the US Department of Energy showed.  Experts polled by Bloomberg expected an average increase in stocks of 3 million barrels.

 Inventories at the terminal in Cushing, Oklahoma, where oil traded on Nymex is stored, decreased by 185,000 barrels to 26.2 million barrels, the Energy Ministry said.  US oil production rose by 100,000 barrels per day (bpd) to 11.9 million bpd.
