Oil Climbs as Venezuela Sees Output Deal

Share Print 0

Oil prices rose on Monday from multi-week lows after Venezuela said OPEC and non-OPEC producers were close to a deal to stabilize the market and as clashes in Libya disrupted attempts to boost crude exports.

Brent crude futures were at $46.32 per barrel at 1043 GMT, up 55 cents from their previous settlement and off an earlier peak of 46.62. U.S. crude was up 61 cents, or 1.4 percent, at $43.64 a barrel.

Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro has said a deal could be announced this month to stabilize oil markets, which have come under pressure due to persistent oversupply.
