Are you kidding me? Mysteriously jumped? Yeh, because 20% of the supply was taken out creating a lower supply, which always drives up price and demand. Another thing, the companies don't decide the price of oil. The stock markets of the world decide it. What they set the price as depends on what analysts say about the world, supplys, stuff happening in the middle east and such.
