Oil prices have risen more than 7% in September, supported by declines in global inventories and signs of an easing in trade tension between the US and China, the world's two largest economies and energy consumers. But on Wednesday, Iraq's oil minister Thamer Ghadhban said oil cartel Opec will discuss at a ministerial meeting on Thursday whether to deepen cuts. The previous OPEC meeting had discussed cuts of 1.6-million to 1.8-million barrels per day, he said.

Official inventory numbers will be released by the US Energy Information Administration later on Wednesday.
