# Brent Crude Falls 2.4% as OPEC+ Supply Rises

> Brent crude settled at $95.41 per barrel on Friday, down 2.4% on the week, and WTI December futures closed at $88.52, down about 2.5%. OPEC+ output rose 1.96 million bpd in October and an unexpected 4.66-million-barrel build in US commercial crude inventories weighed on prices.

## Why it matters

Rising OPEC+ supply and US stock builds lower the energy cost base and diesel and ethanol prices, easing pressure on feed transport and processing costs, while bearish crude can weigh on biofuel-linked vegetable oil demand.
