"India's foreign ministry said it will diversify its sourcing while ensuring stable energy prices and secure supplies. Meanwhile, a bearish report from the American Petroleum Institute (API) restricted any major upside for Oil prices."
"Numbers overnight from the API show that crude Oil inventories increased for a third straight week by 7.36m barrels over the last week, in contrast to the average market expectation of a draw of 136k barrels.
