U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude oil futures were trading at 46.09 dollars, up six cents from their last settlement.
International Brent sweet crude oil futures were at 49.22 dollars a barrel, up 10 cents.
In the first oil trade , Brent crude was up 15 cents at 49.05 dollars a barrel, while U.S. crude added 2 cents to 48.05 dollars a barrel.
