Brent crude futures settled up nearly 9 percent after OPEC agreed to its first joint oil cut with Russia since 2001. Saudi Arabia accepted a significant concession by dropping its demand that Iran also cut output.
Prices eased slightly in early Asian trading on concerns that other producers, especially US shale drillers, could fill the gap.
The cut removes crude supply from the market, supporting energy prices, while expected shale output growth limits how far the rally can extend.
