Solid economic growth figures from the U.S. and news about China's economic stimulus combined this week to push oil prices higher.   Benchmarks could post their biggest weekly rise since October this week, with supply uncertainty in the Middle East contributing to the bullish sentiment.   In intra-day trade, Brent crude was trading at 81 dollars and 82 cents per barrel, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was trading at 76 dollars and 76 cents per barrel when reports last came in.
