Oil rises on surprise draw in U.S. crude stockpiles | Reuters:
Oil prices rose for a fourth day on Wednesday after industry data showed a surprise decline in U.S. crude inventories and tension over the disappearance of a prominent Saudi journalist stoked supply worries.
Brent crude LCOc1 was up 40 cents at $81.81 a barrel by 0755 GMT, after gaining $1.15 in the previous three sessions. The global benchmark, which hit a two-week low last week as equity markets dropped, is trading around $5 below a four-year high of $86.74 reached on Oct. 3.
U.S. light crude oil CLc1 was up 30 cents at $72.22.
