Brent and WTI crude settled at their lowest levels since before Russia's February invasion of Ukraine as traders feared a recession would cut energy demand. The Bank of England raised rates and warned of a prolonged downturn, while Saudi Arabia and the UAE held back spare output for a possible winter supply crunch.
