Crude Oil Falls on Prudhoe Bay Output, Cease-Fire in Lebanon
Crude oil fell in New York after BP Plc said it will keep half the Prudhoe Bay field in Alaska open and as a cease-fire nears between Israeli and Iranian-backed Hezbollah forces in Lebanon.
BP, the world's third-largest oil company, plans to pump about 200,000 barrels a day from the western part of Prudhoe while pipelines from the rest of the field are repaired, the company said Aug. 12. The monthlong conflict in Lebanon, which helped push oil to a record $78.40 a barrel last month, may halt with a cease-fire scheduled to take effect later today.
Crude oil for September delivery fell as much as 75 cents, or 1 percent, to $73.60 a barrel in after-hours electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It was at $73.69 at 8:30 a.m. in Singapore.
