#Oil_prices #rose on Thursday as falling U.S. #crude inventories amid rising refinery intake and a rise in #Chinese imports last month supported higher demand expectations for the world’s two largest crude consuming nations.

#Brent crude futures for July rose 64 cents, or 0.8%, to $84.22 a #barrel by 0812 GMT. U.S. West #Texas Intermediate crude for June was up 66 cents, or 0.8% to $79.65 #per barrel.

“#Oil markets were buoyed by a larger-than-expected draw in the U.S. inventory data. The improved #China’s trade balance data added to the upside momentum,” said #Tina Teng, an independent market #analyst, adding that crude prices may continue to track economic factors looking ahead.

#Crude inventories in the U.S., the world’s biggest oil user, fell last week by 1.4 million barrels to 459.5 #million, according to the Energy Information Administration, more than analysts’ expectations for a 1.1 #million-barrel draw.

This caused gasoline stocks to swell by more than 900,000 barrels to 228 #million, while distillate stockpiles including diesel and heating #oil rose by 600,000 barrels to 116.4 million.

“The market shrugged off the builds in gasoline and distillate fuels as refiners ramp up for the upcoming driving season,” analysts at ANZ Research wrote in a note on Thursday.

Shipments of crude in April to #China, the world’s biggest oil importer, totalled 44.72 million metric tons, or about 10.88 million bpd, customs data released on Thursday showed. That was up 5.45% from a year earlier.

Hopes for a ceasefire in the Israel-#Hamas conflict Gaza kept oil prices from moving higher. The U.S. said this week that negotiations should be able to close the gaps between Israel and Hamas.

“While there may be some short-term relief for oil prices, it may be difficult to return to April’s high above the $90 per barrel level, where geopolitical tensions were at its peak,” said Yeap Jun Rong, market strategist at IG.
