Oil prices rose on Thursday from a three-week low touched in the previous session after consuming nations announced a huge release of oil from emergency reserves, with worries over tight supply still clouding the market outlook.

Brent crude futures climbed $1.48 or 1.5%, to $102.55 a barrel at 0442 GMT, while US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures rose $1.26, or 1.3%, to $97.49 a barrel, Reuters reported.
