Oil prices settled higher on Friday, as markets remained focused on supply risks despite easing geopolitical tensions related to Iran.
Brent crude futures for March delivery gained 0.58%, or 37 cents, to settle at $64.13 a barrel, extending weekly gains to 1.25%.
Meanwhile, US WTI futures for February delivery rose 0.42%, or 25 cents, to $59.44 a barrel, posting a weekly increase of 0.54%.
The gains came as investors continued to assess the potential for global supply disruptions should the US carry out a military strike on Iran, although President Donald Trump hinted earlier this week that he may refrain from such action.
