OilPrice.com ------- Optimism among oil traders seems to be rising based on Brent calendar spreads, according to Reuters market analyst John Kemp.

What’s more, Kemp says, the Brent inter-month spreads for the rest of 2018 look flat for the time being, suggesting that traders expect a tighter oil market.
