Oil rises on prospects of tight market, possible EU ban on Russian crude

US West Texas Intermediate crude rose 27c , or 0.2%, at $114.36 a barrel. WTI is set for a weekly gain of about 1%. US gasoline stocks fell by 482,000 barrels last week to 219.7-million barrels, US Energy Information Administration said on Wednesday. The start of summer driving season in the US normally entails increased consumption.

Both benchmark crude contracts were also supported as the European Commission continued to seek unanimous support of all 27 EU member states for its proposed new sanctions against Russia, with Hungary posing a stumbling block.
