(MENAFN- ProactiveInvestors)

West Texas Intermediate oil futures settled higher overnight as a drop in the U.S. dollar following the Federal Reserve's policy statement outstripped earlier pressure from a 10th straight weekly rise in U.S. crude inventories.

West Texas Intermediate for April delivery jumped 2.8% for the session to settle at US$44.66 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Prices were trading around US$42.60 before the Fed news.
