Brent oil prices fell more than 1 per cent on Wednesday to their lowest levels since March, continuing a downward trajectory as investors eye potential US-Iran talks in Doha amid a strained interim ceasefire in the now four-month-long war.
Brent futures settled at US$71.57 per barrel, sliding further to US$70.79 at 11.10am on Thursday.
UBS analyst Giovanni Staunovo was reported by Reuters as saying that previously stranded ships that have now become available are creating a temporary wave of new supply. But he would not commit that the market had priced out a risk premium, reflecting continued cautiousness.
Iranian officials have said the two sides must still sort out terms of a ceasefire they signed two weeks ago before they can tackle more difficult topics.
Meanwhile, two senior Iranian officials told Reuters on July 1 that Iran is determined to win international recognition of its control over the Strait of Hormuz and ability to levy fees on ships entering or leaving the Gulf, even if it has to do so by force.
Tehran believes the wording of its interim agreement with the US allows it to keep control of which ships may pass and which route they take through the narrow waterway.
