Mumbai, Feb. 14 -- WTI crude oil futures linger around its lowest level since end December on Friday morning in Asia although the counter is up marginally by 0.14% on Friday morning at $71.39 per barrel. Mild gains in the counter came as US tariff announcements by President Donald Trump were delayed until at least April. Large crude stockpiles build during the week largely weighed on crude oil prices. US Energy Information Administration (EIA) weekly report showed crude oil stockpiles in the United States for the week ending February 7 climbed by 4.07 million barrels, compared to a rise of 8.664 million barrels in the previous week.
