West Texas Intermediate (WTI) Oil price trims its daily losses, trading near $67.50 per barrel during Tuesday's European session. Crude Oil prices found support from the United States' (US) plan to purchase Oil for its Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR).
On Monday, the US announced it is looking to acquire up to 3 million barrels for delivery by May next year. This purchase could exhaust the remaining funds available for SPR replenishment until further funding is approved by Congress, per Reuters.
Oil prices have dropped significantly as limited military actions have eased concerns about a potential full-scale conflict in the Middle East. Iran's Foreign Ministry spokesperson, Esmaeil Baghaei, hinted at the possibility of using "all available tools" in response to recent Israeli strikes on Iranian military targets.
