SINGAPORE: Oil prices rose more than $1 on Friday on expectations of a drop in Russian crude supply, which helped offset worries of a hit to US transport fuel demand growth as a looming Arctic storm threatens travel during the holiday season, according to Reuters.

Brent crude was up by 66 cents, or 0.8 percent, to $81.64 a barrel by 0440 GMT, while US West Texas Intermediate crude was at $78.27 a barrel, up 78 cents, or 1 percent higher.
