In early Asian trading, US light crude passed $93 a barrel for the first time, hitting $93.20 before easing back to $92.88 by early afternoon in Europe.
London's Brent also hit a fresh high of $90 before pulling back to $89.58.
Some analysts believe oil prices will hit $100 a barrel before the end of 2007 if current pressures persist.
'Geopolitical tensions'
An array of factors has forced prices up, analysts said.
In past months there also have been concerns about the stop-start violence in Nigeria's main oil producing region, the international community's unresolved nuclear dispute with Iran, and concerns over heating supplies for the US winter.

At the same time, the US currency has fallen to a fresh low against the euro, making oil - which is priced in dollars - attractive to buy, analysts said.
Suggestions that the US Federal Reserve may cut interest rates further when it meets later this week has further hit confidence in the dollar and pushed money towards oil.
"It looks like everyone wants to sell the dollar and buy other assets, whatever assets whether they be equities or commodities," said Christoph Eibl, head of trading at Tiberius Asset Management.
In recent days, prices have spiked further on worries about disruption to a fifth of Mexican oil output following a tropical storm in the Caribbean.
Earlier in the month, prices were driven by fears that Turkey may carry out an extensive ground assault against Kurdish rebels in Iraq.
US light crude broke through the $92 a barrel price for the first time on Friday and prices have now risen 30% since the start of August.
Opec action
Efforts by producers' group Opec to restrain prices by agreeing to lift production from 1 November have so far failed to calm the market.
Taking inflation into account, prices are still below the peak of $101 a barrel seen in 1980.
But analysts are now bracing themselves for oil to approach the nominal $100 mark in the next few weeks should current conditions continue.
"I personally don't believe we will see prices at $100 a barrel but it is not impossible given the situation," said David Moore, a commodity strategist at the Commonwealth Bank of Australia.

Catatan: Sanksi terbaru Amerika terhadap Iran sengaja tidak di sentuh oleh BBC dalam laporan ini, walhal itu merupakan berita yang terkemuka melonjakkan harga minyak di pasaran! Ada udang di sebalik batu?

I seldom leave remarks, however i did a few searching and wound up here "Berita Mutakhir Dari BBC! Oil prices break through $93 mark".
And I do have 2 questions for you if it's allright. Could it be just me or does it give the impression like a few of these remarks look like left by brain dead people? :-P And, if you are writing at additional places, I'd like
to follow anything fresh you have to post.

Exactly what concerning the colour printing. You ask which is cheaper in B&W
yet just what about general use. My inkjet smears every colour I try to print.
Is laser better for all around high quality at a practical price.

With havin so much content and articles do you ever run into any
issues of plagorism or copyright violation?
My website has a lot of completely unique content I've either authored myself or outsourced but it appears a lot of it is popping it up all over the web without my permission. Do you know any techniques to help protect against content from being ripped off? I'd genuinely appreciate it.
