Oil prices rose on Friday and Asia and are set to record a more-than-7% weekly gain after a drone attack on Saudi Arabia’s major oil facilities last weekend escalated tensions in the Middle East.
The attack happened on Saturday and knocked out almost half of Saudi Arabia’s production.
The U.S. and Saudi Arabia blamed Iran for the assault, but Tehran denied any involvement.
