據離岸工程網站12月24日 布倫特原油期貨周五在假日交易清淡的情況下結束了為期三天的上漲，但基準價格仍將每周上漲，市場關注歐佩克+的下一步措施和病毒奧密克戎的影響。

格林威治標準時間07:41，布倫特原油期貨下跌41美分（0.5%），至每桶76.44美元，此前一個交易日上漲2.1%?；鶞手笖祪r格仍有望周上漲約4%。

美國股市周五因圣誕節休市。

隨著對高傳染性奧密克戎變種對全球經濟影響的擔憂消退，油價本周已經回升，早期數據表明，它會導致更輕微的疾病。

他表示：“隨著對奧密克戎影響的擔憂消退，市場焦點轉移到歐佩克+在1月份會議上的下一步行動?！?/p>

Chiyoki Chen補充稱，歐佩克+及其包括俄羅斯在內的盟友可能會在下次會議上堅持其決定，即只要油價保持在每桶70美元以上，就將每月增產40萬桶。

該小組定于明年1月4日舉行會議。

盡管如此，在感染病例激增的情況下，一些投資者仍然保持謹慎。

Oil Prices Ease in Holiday Trade, Market Focus on Next OPEC+ Move

Brent crude futures snapped a three-day rally on Friday in light holiday trading but the benchmark was still headed for a weekly gain, with the market focusing on next steps by OPEC+ and the impact of the Omicron variant.

Brent crude futures slid 41 cents, or 0.5%, to $76.44 a barrel by 0741 GMT, following a 2.1% gain in the previous session. The benchmark was still on track for a weekly gain of about 4%.

U.S. markets are closed on Friday for the Christmas holiday.

Oil prices have recovered this week as fears over the impact of the highly infectious Omicron variant on the global economy receded, with early data suggesting it causes a milder level of illness.

"It's a typical holiday market," said Chiyoki Chen, chief analyst at Sunward Trading.

"With concerns about the fallout from Omicron fading, market focus shifted to the next move by OPEC+ at its January meeting," he said.

The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies including Russia, known as OPEC+, will likely stick to its decision to raise oil production by 400,000 barrels per day (bpd) each month at its next meeting as long as oil prices stay above $70 a barrel, Chen added.

The group is scheduled to meet next on Jan. 4.

Still, some investors remained cautious amid surging infection cases.
