Energy futures except for natural gas finished in the negative area on Thursday as weak US jobs market data raised concerns over energy demand prospects. Moreover, a recent bearish EIA report continued to push oil prices lower.

Crude and Brent oil tumbled as market players were cautious that Friday's jobs report may disappoint. Oil futures also were depressed by a recent inventory report released on Wednesday.
