(Reuters) - Chemical maker LyondellBasell Industries NV (LYB.N) posted a 9 percent drop in quarterly profit as high crude oil prices in Europe and Asia eroded margins.

For the quarter that ended March 31, the company posted net income of $599 million, or $1.04 per share, compared with $660 million, or $1.15 per share, in the year-ago period.

Revenue fell 3 percent to $11.88 billion.
