West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude oil declined 3.25% on Friday, trading around $69.05 per barrel at the time of writing. Earlier in the session, prices hit a low of $68.48, the weakest level since late February.
The drop was driven by a recovery in oil exports from the Middle East, which tempered concerns over potential supply disruptions. The market reacted to expectations of increased supply, pushing prices lower.
