Brend Crude futures price for August settlement as of 08:54 (UTC+3) June 15, 2022 edged up 0.33% to $121.57 per barrel, trading data show.

Light Sweet Crude (WTI) futures rose 0.45% to $119 per barrel.

The crude oil market shows a moderate recovery after a slight decline the day before, caused by optimism about the Iranian nuclear deal.

The conclusion of the agreement may lead to the easing of sanctions and an increase in the supply of Iranian oil to the global market.
