Oil hovers below $97 as traders eye US supplies (AP) 7 February 2012, 5:55am

Flames shoot into the air after a gas pipeline explosion in the Sinai peninsula, 240 miles (374 kilometers) southeast of Cairo, Egypt, Sunday, Feb. 5, 2012. An Egyptian security official says attackers have set off explosives along a gas pipeline in the country's Sinai peninsula, halting exports to neighboring Israel and Jordan. The blast that took place Sunday at dawn is the twelfth successful attack on the line since the popular uprising that ousted longtime Egyptians leader Hosni Mubarak in February last year. The official says the attack by presumed Islamist militants caused huge fires, but fire engines put it out hours later. (AP Photo/Khaled Kandil)AP - Oil prices hovered below $97 a barrel Tuesday in Asia amid trader concern U.S. crude supplies will continue to rise because of weak demand.
