Oil loses more than $4 on Friday, continues to go down

The price of oil continued with its exceptionally strong depreciation on Friday and the first day of the new week. Brent futures with delivery next month lost $1.1, or 1.4% on Friday's closing level.
US crude oil fell by 1.57 dollars, or 2.3% on Friday's closing level.
Brent and US oil fell respectively by 6.4 and 9 percent of its peak in early May. In China, oil fell 4.5 percent to 459 yuan a barrel (71.83 dollars a barrel).
The rise in oil prices in recent weeks has sparked serious debates among market participants and OPEC members about the impact of oil prices on the world economy, according Chittag Ay, chief economist at Morgan Stanley.
On Friday, Saudi Arabia and Russia, which are considered to be drivers of the oil market, said some oil production growth of 1 million barrels per day was under discussion.
Production cuts were the factor that led to substantial oil prices on international markets.
With the price rise, however, the US producer of US oil is also growing, benefiting from the high oil price.
Oil prices have collapsed after reports that Saudi Arabia and Russia have agreed to increase their production in the second half of the year, ANZ said.
US energy companies have added 15 new field deposits for the week to May 25.
