Brent crude trades near 12-year low as Iran makes oil slip below $28

Brent crude traded near a 12-year low in London, briefly dipping below $28 a barrel, after the lifting of international sanctions on Iran paved the way for increased supply amid a global glut. Futures were little changed after earlier dropping as much as 4.4% in London to the lowest since November 2003.

Saudi Oil Minister Ali al-Naimi dismissed supply concerns with a forecast that prices will recover. “The likely increase of Iranian oil production could not have come at a more unfavorable point in time, with the oil market being oversupplied,” Giovanni Staunovo, an analyst said.
