Oil prices rose more than 2% on Oct 29 after US data showed crude and gasoline inventories fell unexpectedly, and after reports OPEC+ may delay a December output increase. Brent settled at $72.55 and WTI at $68.61.
Inventory draws and a possible OPEC+ supply delay tighten crude balances, supporting energy costs for feed production and biofuel margins.
