Oil rose on Tuesday after top exporter Saudi Arabia said OPEC+ was sticking with output cuts and could take further steps to balance the market, outweighing global recession worries and concern about China's rising Covid-19 case numbers.

Saudi Arabian Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman on Monday was also quoted by state news agency SPA as denying a Wall Street Journal report that said OPEC was considering boosting output and sent prices plunging by more than 5%.

Brent crude LCOc1 rose $1.45, or 1.7%, to $88.90 by 1302 GMT. US West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude CLc1 was up $1.16, or 1.5%, at $81.20.

"Crude oil prices are trying to recover their losses," said Avatrade analyst Naeem Aslam. "That Saudi Arabia has denied there was any discussion about an increase in oil supply with OPEC and its allies has supported the market today."

The United Arab Emirates, another big OPEC producer, denied it was holding talks on changing the latest OPEC+ agreement, while Kuwait said there were no talks on an output hike.

OPEC, Russia and other allies, known as OPEC+, meet on 4 December, a day before the start of European and G7 measures in retaliation for Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which could support the market.

On 5 December. a European Union ban on Russian crude imports is set to start, as is a G7 plan that will allow shipping services providers to help to export Russian oil, but only at enforced low prices.

"The critical risk to a price cap policy is the potential for Russian retaliation, which would turn this into an additional bullish shock for the oil market," Stephen Innes, managing partner at SPI Asset Management, said in a report.

Concerns over oil demand in the face of the US Federal Reserve's interest rate hikes and China's strict Covid lockdown policies limited the upside.

Beijing shut parks, shopping malls and museums on Tuesday and more Chinese cities resumed mass Covid testing. The Chinese capital on Monday warned that it is facing its most severe challenge of the pandemic and tightened rules for entering the city.

In focus later will be the latest weekly snapshots of supply in the United States, which are expected to show crude inventories fell by 2.2 million barrels. The American Petroleum Institute's report is out at 2130 GMT
