Crude Oil futures for December settled up $.78 or 1.343% at $58.84. Oil prices rose on Monday, recovering part of the decline seen the previous week. Traders are watching developments in negotiations between Russia and Ukraine, where US-facilitated discussions have reportedly advanced, though key disputes over borders and political control still stand in the way. President Trump suggested there may be positive movement, while President Zelenskiy described the current stage as pivotal.

Weather models suggest milder conditions will prevail through November 26 before a colder shift is expected between November 28 and December 5, which could boost consumption. LNG shipments are climbing, with feedgas deliveries to the country’s export facilities averaging around 18 bcfd so far this month.
