LONDON—Oil prices dipped in a choppy trading session on Friday as global recession fears and weak oil demand, especially in China, outweighed support from a large cut to the OPEC+ supply target.
Brent crude futures were down 76 cents, or 0.8 percent, at $93.81 a barrel at 1044 GMT while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures fell 85 cents, or 1 percent, to $88.26.
