Brent oil prices remain strong above $111.60 per barrel, while WTI trades above $100, driven by renewed Middle East tensions after the US ordered diplomats to leave Saudi Arabia following Houthi attacks. These developments raise concerns about the safety of oil facilities and shipping routes in the Gulf, potentially disrupting exports and pushing prices higher. Technical analysis suggests WTI could rally towards $120 if it breaks key resistance levels, while Brent faces resistance at $113 but may also climb to $120 or higher if momentum continues.
Oil price forecasts show Brent above $111.60 and WTI above $100 amid Middle East tensions.
