NEW YORK (AP) — The price of oil fell Tuesday as traders wait to see if the government reports a 10th straight weekly increase in U.S. crude oil supplies.

Benchmark U.S. crude for January delivery fell 41 cents to close at $93.68 a barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange.

Meanwhile, the average price for gasoline in the U.S. inched up another penny to $3.29. That's the highest average price since Oct. 27, but is still 13 cents cheaper than at this time last year.

A day after assessing a deal between Iran and six world powers on the country's nuclear program, traders began looking ahead to figures on U.S. crude and gasoline stockpiles.
