Middle East Crude-Benchmarks post small weekly gain on more attacks on Saudi
SINGAPORE, Oct 23 (Reuters) - Spot premiums for Middle East crude benchmarks Oman and Dubai posted a small weekly gain on Friday, even though they stayed flat for the session, due to rising tension in the Gulf that threatened supply outlook.
Saudi Aramco 2222.SE on Thursday ordered the evacuation of its headquarters in Dhahran on the Gulf near Bahrain, Reuters reported, as fighting intensified between the world's largest crude exporter and Yemen-based Houthis.
Oil prices rose on Friday, with Brent crude touching a more than five-month high. O/R
