Data released the American Petroleum Institute showed oil inventories fell by 8.7 million barrels against analysts’ expectations for a drop of 2.5 million barrels which may bring into question the increased production in the US which many predicted should have severely curbed the oil price and kept a lid on prices.

If he indeed chooses to walk away from the agreement oil could be in for some serious gains,

"If he actually withdraws the U.S from the climate accord, this would signal his intention to further roll-back emission regulations that would favour the use and demand of fossil fuels, thus giving a much needed boost to oil prices," said Jonathan Chan, investment
