Oil falls

World oil prices fell on Thursday as traders took profits from a rally the day before, analysts said.
New York's main contract, light sweet crude for delivery in December, slipped 27 cents to 82.27 dollars a barrel.
Brent North Sea crude for December delivery dipped two cents to 83.58 dollars a barrel in midday London trade.
"It could likely be profit-taking today," said ANZ bank analyst Serene Lim.
Crude markets had jumped on Wednesday thanks to a weaker dollar and a lower-than-expected rise in US crude inventories.
