Gasoline added 0.8 cents to $2.7853 a gallon. Home heating oil gained 0.54 cents to $3.0597 a gallon.
The price of natural gas shed 1 cent in late trading to $3.183 per million British thermal units.
At the pump, AAA reported the national average price for regular unleaded gasoline rose to $3.31 per gallon from Wednesday's $3.304.
