Oil price sprint up

- Amsterdam The price of oil rises by 2% on Tuesday afternoon. The market is responding to figures that OPEC's oil cartel less marketed.

About half past three burned Brent oil was $ 49.50 per barrel of 150 liters.

Does OPEC make its promise of less production true? After Monday's response to Saudi Arabia, there were also lower production figures from Russia on Tuesday. In the event of less supply, that pressure upwards for the price ultimately puts the pump for consumers and businesses.
