BBC News Friday, 20 August, 2004: Oil stays below $50 a barrel mark
Fresh violence in Iraq triggered yet another oil price surge on Friday, before dealers starting taking profits.
New York light crude rose as high as $49.40 after reports of a new attack on an Iraqi oil pipeline, but then slipped back to close at $47.86.
However, with the situation in Iraq still uncertain, oil prices could still surge through past $50, dealers said.
Despite slipping back, oil is still trading near its highest level in the 21-year history of crude oil futures on the New York Mercantile Exchange(Nymex).
