KARACHI: The price of oil in the global market reached a six-month high.
Oil prices rose on Friday as rising tensions in the Middle East raised the risk of supply disruptions from the oil-producing region.
Brent crude futures were up 66 cents, or 0.7 percent, at $90.40 a barrel. U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures added 90 cents, or 1.1 percent, to $85.92.
