Oil prices still up after a week in which the barrel, both Wti and Brent, rose by more than 7% in the wake of the attacks on Saudi installations: precisely the possible long lead times for the total restoration of production, even if Ryyadh's energy minister has indicated that this should take place at the end of the month, are the basis of the new extension to 58,7 dollars per barrel of WTI in November and 65 dollars of Brent in November.
Tensions in the Gulf continue to worry the markets which have seen the possibility of a meeting between US President Trump and Iranian leader Rouhani vanish on the occasion of the UN Climate Assembly.

An attempt to bring the two opposing fronts closer together will in any case be attempted during the UN session by the diplomats of the two countries involved.
