Oil slipped the most in a week in New York and London as traders betting on higher prices were seen closing out positions after Friday’s rally.

Futures tumbled more than 2 percent in both markets, with Brent crude sliding from near a three-month high on Friday. Libya is working to reopen a pipeline linking the Sharara oil field to the Zawiya export terminal after loadings were halted. Meanwhile, a committee of OPEC and allies was said to see slightly lower compliance to their output-reduction deal in July.
