The June contract, the previous front-month contract which expired on Tuesday, settled at $62.99 a barrel, down 11 cents.

But ENERGYKENYA will still price petroleum based on what cartels want for profit. Sad.

It’s amazing that this one country can spike the gas markets anytime they want.

In case of war between Iran & gulf states, both will be destroyed, oil prices will jump,all prices will rise in the west &everybody will loose! No winner from this war except for israel who will just ask & get more money from the zionist trump to make up for extra fuel prices!

Such bullshit.
