Oil prices rebounded on Tuesday after a sharp fall the previous session supported by tempered optimism over U.S.-Iran peace talks, while investors awaited clearer signs of progress in restoring crude flows through the Strait of Hormuz.
Brent crude futures gained 24 cents, or 0.38%, to $78.15 a barrel and U.S. West Texas Intermediate rose to $74.19 a barrel, up 33 cents, or 0.46%, as of 0026 GMT.
