Oil prices rose 3% on Tuesday, boosted by an unexpected commitment from Saudi Arabia to deepen production cuts in June to help drain a supply glut built up during the coronavirus crisis.
Saudi Arabia said on Monday it would adding to existing cuts by reducing output by a further 1 million barrels per day (bpd) in June, slashing total production to 7.5 million bpd, or down nearly 40% from April.
President Donald Trump on Tuesday praised Saudi Arabia's decision to curb its oil output and said it would be a boon to the U.S. oil industry, which had been battered by a price crash in recent weeks.
Inventory data this week will be key to extending any oil price rally.
