Brent and US crude futures still posted weekly gains of more than 4 percent, with both contracts touching eight-week peaks on Thursday.
US and European equities slid and the euro weakened broadly after Spain’s heavily indebted Valencia region called for aid, increasing investor fears that the Spanish government is moving toward a full-blown bailout.

Brent September crude fell 97 cents to settle at $106.83 a barrel, after falling as low as $105.60 intraday.
Front-month Brent jumped 4.33 percent for the week, posting a fourth straight weekly gain and having risen 16.5 percent in the period.
Expiring US August crude fell $1.22 to settle at $91.44 a barrel, off its low of $90.66. For the week, US crude rose 4.98 percent but still headed for a more than 4 percent weekly gain.
