SINGAPORE: Oil prices climbed on Friday to their highest levels in a year, extending a run of strong gains on signs of economic growth in the United States and a continued commitment by producers to hold back crude supply.
Brent crude futures climbed 28 cents, or 0.5%, to $59.12 a barrel by 0730 GMT, after hitting a high of $59.41, its highest since Feb. 20 last year. Brent is on track to rise 6% this week.
