Middle East Crude-Benchmarks gain for a third session

SINGAPORE, April 16 (Reuters) - Middle East crude benchmark spot premiums of Oman, Dubai and Murban edged up for a third consecutive session, as a sharp drop in oil prices buoyed demand from Asia.

A rising supply outlook and bleak demand expectation exacerbated by U.S.-China tariffs war have sent global oil prices plunging in recent weeks.
