Oil prices inched higher in early Asian trade on Tuesday, on expectations that OPEC+ may agree to a large cut in crude output when it meets on Wednesday but concerns about the global economy capped gains.

Brent crude futures rose 43 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $89.29 per barrel by 0108 GMT after gaining more than 4 percent in the previous session.

U.S. crude futures rose by 22 cents, or 0.3 percent, to $83.85 a barrel. The benchmark gained more than 5 percent in the previous session, which marked its largest daily gain since May.

Oil prices rallied on Monday on renewed concerns about supply tightness. There are expectations that the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) and its allies, known collectively as OPEC+, will cut output by more than 1 million barrels per day (bpd) at their first in-person meeting since 2020 on Wednesday.

Voluntary cuts by individual members could come on top of this, making it their largest cut since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, OPEC sources said.

OPEC+ has boosted output this year after record cuts put in place in 2020 due to demand destruction caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. But in recent months, the organization has failed to meet its planned output increases, missing in July by 2.9 million bpd.

The production cut being considered was justified by the sharp decline in oil prices from recent highs, said Goldman Sachs, adding that this reinforced its bullish oil view. 

Concerns about the global economy could cap the upside, said Tina Teng, an analyst at CMC Markets, as investors also look to take profit on gains made in the previous session.

"Uncertainties remain in the global markets, such as bond market turmoil, the sell-off in risk assets, and a skyrocketing U.S. dollar," said Teng.

U.S. crude oil stocks were estimated to have increased by around 2 million barrels in the week to September 30, a preliminary Reuters poll showed on Monday.
