# Oil rally stalls on risk of new supply - Moneyweb

> Oil rose in Asian trade but was still set for a third weekly decline as fresh supply appeared to reach the market. Traders reported a sharp rise in Iraqi export cargoes for next month, and Libyan exports resumed as its civil war eased. Lockdowns in France and the UK were also weighing on demand expectations.

## Why it matters

Rising Iraqi and Libyan barrels add to supply just as demand weakens, which pressures crude and diesel prices. Lower energy costs can ease feed transport and processing expenses.
