NYMEX crude oil futures closed up on the 22 day, as the situation in Libya prompted investors to switch from Brent crude oil futures in Beihai to New York light crude oil futures, prompting the former to fall in price.

NYMEX light crude oil futures closed up 1.86 U.S. dollars in September, closing at $84.12 a barrel, or 2.3%, hitting 81.13 dollars a barrel, hitting a maximum of $84.67 a barrel.

Futures fell 36 cents to $108.26 a barrel, or 0.3%., after the news that Libya's opposition had controlled most of Tripoli, the contract hit a low point of $105.15 a barrel earlier. However, most of the lost land was recovered at the end of the session, as traders lowered expectations for Libya's oil exports to recover soon.

Before the civil war broke out in February, Libya exported 1 million 300 thousand barrels of high-quality oil per day.

Libya's anti government leader, Shokri Ghanem 22, said the country would resume oil output in the next few months, ending the disruption of oil output since the war broke out in the country.

A senior official of the Gulf oil producing countries said on 22 June that Saudi Arabia is ready to take measures to readjust oil production to cope with Libya's recovery.

The supply situation, however, has not been done yet.

Libya's resumption of production will lead to oversupply of the market, and Saudi Arabia will cut output.
