"Oil prices fell to near $98 a barrel Wednesday amid signs OPEC may raise its crude production quotas at a meeting in Vienna.

By early afternoon in Europe, the benchmark oil contract for July delivery was down 90 cents to $98.19 a barrel in electronic trading on the New York Mercantile Exchange. The contract added 8 cents to settle at $99.09 on Tuesday."
