Crude oil prices rise on weak dollar, expectations for OPEC+ output cuts

SINGAPORE (Reuters) -Oil prices rose slightly on Tuesday due to a weak dollar, and expectations that the OPEC+ producer group would deepen and extend output cuts due to fears demand would remain subdued.

Brent crude futures were up 11 cents, or 0.1%, at $80.09 a barrel at 0510 GMT. U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures were trading 4 cents higher, also 0.1%, at $74.90 a barrel.
