By morning Greenwich Mean Time, Brent crude futures went up 24 cents to $67/barrel and US futures jumped 38 cents to $56.84.
Saudi Arabia is pushing The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries to ramp down output by 1 million to 1.4 million bpd (barrels per day) in a bid to reduce unused fuel.
According to Russian Energy Minister Alexander Novak, non-OPEC member Russia looks to sign an agreement with the group, of which the details are expected after the Dec. 6 Vienna OPEC meet.
