Brent slips as Saudi, Pakistani and Turkish officials fly to Tehran
Brent for December fell 1.2 per cent to $115.37 a barrel as a Saudi delegation led by defence minister Khalid bin Salman arrived in Tehran, with Pakistani and Turkish officials due to join the talks. Prices had settled at $116.72 on Friday, the highest since April. Houthi claims of attacks on the kingdom's East-West pipeline added supply risk, although Riyadh confirmed only intercepted missiles and no damage to oil sites.
