Alaska North Slope crude slipped 42 cents May 5, to close at $68.84 per barrel, while West Texas intermediate crept 6 cents lower to $65.63, and Brent rose 8 cents to $68.96.
Prices settled lower after spirited trading earlier in the day that saw Brent prices loft to $69.81, just 19 cents shy of the $70 mark. WTI traded above $66 before falling back.
The surge reflected positive pandemic news from the United States and Europe that lifted hopes of a strong summer travel season.
The May 5 action capped two strong days of gains to open the week that featured ANS notching a closing price above $69 and the indexes hitting seven-week highs.

EAST ST. LOUIS An insurance provider claims it has no duty to defend a claim involving a road rage incident and an auto glass business in Highland.
Auto-Owners Insurance Company filed a complaint March 31 in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Illinois against Michael Cook, Michael Schuster and Highland Auto Glass Inc.
According to Auto-Owners Insurance s complaint, it is disputing a claim, which stems from a road rage accident that took place on Oct. 4, 2019. The plaintiff alleges Cook was a passenger in a Ford van driven by Schuster. The plaintiffs allege another driver, Devin Dahmer, rammed his car into the vehicle occupied by Cook and Shuster and caused them to suffer injuries.
