"Supply concerns are likely to persist in the coming months as OPEC+ countries, the world's major oil producers, may not have enough spare capacity... The summer travelling season and China easing its COVID-19 restrictions will push demand to grow further," said Leona Liu, analyst at Singapore-based DailyFX.
"Although recession fears have increasingly become a headwind for oil prices, it is estimated that we still have at least half a year to go before a real recession."
Analysts said that prices have been supported by supply anxiety after sanctions on oil shipments from Russia, the world's second-largest oil exporter, after its invasion of Ukraine and questions over how Russian output might fall due to sanctions on equipment needed for production.
"Supply concerns are unlikely to subside unless there is a resolution to the Russia-Ukraine war, or unless we see a sharp rise in supply from either U.S. or OPEC," said Madhavi Mehta, commodity research analyst at Kotak Securities.
