“Market fundamentals, in terms of supply and demand, have begun to improve,” Falih stated on Sunday at a press conference with Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak, adding: “We are optimistic that oil prices will continue to improve in the future.”<\/p>\n

Novak was meeting with OPEC ministers to discuss closer cooperation between Russia and OPEC to support the market.<\/p>

Last week WTI Crude was trading at nearly $52\/barrel, a 15-month high. It has slipped somewhat since, to about $50.50, after comments from Iraq’s Oil Minister Jabar Ali al-Luaibi indicating his country wanted to be exempt from any output cuts that OPEC might impose, saying Iraq needed the revenue to fight the Islamic State.<\/p>\n

Energy trader Mark Fisher is advising investors to buy crude oil and natural gas on dips. “In my opinion, the most likely course is for the market to gradually establish a new base someplace in the $55 to $65 range barring some kind of geopolitical problem,” he told CNBC.<\/p>\n

“It used to be that in natgas, every time the market rallied you could just close your eyes and sell it. I think those days are long over. I think now the time has come that you can basically buy every dip,” he said.<\/p>\n
