    THE Singapore market continued to digest the implications of falling oil prices on Thursday, with rig builder Keppel Corp trading lower while Singapore Airlines (SIA) gained.

    The market opened to news of US energy companies tumbling on Wednesday night, after the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (Opec) cartel cut its 2015 forecast for crude oil demand.
