LONDON, Aug 19 (Reuters) - U.S. stocks of natural gas are
rising much more slowly than normal for this time of year as a
long, hot summer spurs record air-conditioning demand and gas
burn by power generators.
FRANKFURT, Aug 19 (Reuters) - European prompt power for
early next week diverged on Friday, with German prices down on
an increase in thermal capacity and those in France boosted by
the return of warmer weather and tighter nuclear supply.
SINGAPORE, Aug 19 (Reuters) - Singapore's Keppel Land, the

SINGAPORE, Aug 19 (Reuters) - Brent crude oil prices rose

sentiment.
MOSCOW, Aug 18 (Reuters) - A surprise delay to Russia's
privatisation of mid-sized oil producer Bashneft does not bode

state finances.
