Oil marketing firms BPCL, HPCL and Indian Oil will remain in focus as crude oil prices are heading for a third straight week of gains.

Despite persistent oversupply, Brent crude (in London) was trading at $44.60 a barrel while WTI crude (at NYMEX) was ruling at $43.32.

Crude is up more than two-thirds since its January-February lows.

Analysts will also focus on ONGC, Reliance Industries and Cairn India, as rising crude price may impact their refinery margins.
