Oil prices surged more than 12% after China instructed government agencies to start buying cheap crude for its strategic reserves. The purchases came after oil had plunged 66% in the first three months of 2020 amid collapsing demand from the coronavirus.
Dated Brent was assessed at $15.135 a barrel, its lowest level since at least 1999.
