Oil prices fell on Friday after a U.S. Fed official said interest rate cuts should be delayed at least two more months.
Brent crude futures were down 25 cents, or 0.3 percent, at $83.42 a barrel at 0212 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures were 25 cents, or 0.3 percent, lower at $78.36.
