Oil prices on Friday tallied a gain for the week, month and quarter, buoyed by concerns over crude supplies from the Kurdish region of Iraq and oil producers’ strong compliance with an output-cut agreement. November WTI crude added 22 cents, or 0.2%, for the session to settle at $51.67 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange. Prices based on the front-month contracts, rose about 7.7% for the month and climbed about 10.5% for the quarter, according to FactSet data.
