Crude Oil Barrels
Data obtained from oilprice.com confirms that Nigeria’s flagship crude closed at $41.80 on June 19, reaching a four-month high, since early March 9, where its price fell to $37.22. This surge was triggered by oil production cut and growing oil demand for Nigeria’s black gold.

“You’re going to see more OPEC compliance,” Phil Flynn, senior oil analyst at Price Futures Group in Chicago told Reuters. “I think we’d be a lot higher if it weren’t for these coronavirus fears.”
