Brent crude futures rose 0.6%, or 48 cents, to $76.32 a barrel by 0406 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures were at $71.61 a barrel, up 0.5%, or 38 cents. The recent price weakness drew demand from the U.S., which has sought up to 3 million barrels of crude for the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR) for delivery in March 2024.
Investing.com-- Oil prices rose slightly in Asian trade on Monday as data released last week showed some resilience in the U.S. economy, although traders were largely on edge before a string of central bank meetings this week, most notably the Federal Reserve.
