The gap between West Texas Intermediate crude oil and Europe's Brent crude has fallen to its narrowest margin in eight months. Increased pipeline capacity has been a major contributor to rising U.S. oil prices. Later this year the Seaway Pipeline, after experiencing some issues in January, will begin to increase shipments to the Gulf Coast.
