CANADA-CRUDE-Heavy oil discount holds steady
Sep 6, 2024 3:09 PM

Sept 6 (Reuters) - The discount on Western Canada Select

(WCS) heavy crude versus the North American benchmark West Texas

Intermediate (WTI) was steady on Friday:

* WCS for October delivery in Hardisty, Alberta, settled at

$13.70 a barrel below WTI, according to brokerage CalRock,

unchanged from the previous day's settlement.

* Global oil prices settled 2% lower, with a big weekly loss

after U.S. jobs data was weaker-than-expected in August, which

outweighed price support from a delay to supply increases by

OPEC+ producers.

* The outright price of WCS was around $54 a barrel.
