Oil prices were steady on Tuesday as key producer group OPEC undershot its expected pace of output increases last month, while the world’s top crude consumer China ramped up operating rates to meet a spike in diesel demand.

Brent crude futures edged higher by 3 cents to $84.74 a barrel by 0507 GMT.

while U.S. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) crude futures slipped by 7 cents, or 0.1%, to $83.98 a barrel.

“Crude prices still seemed poised to head higher, with some traders waiting for confirmation after both the EIA crude oil inventory shows demand for most products are headed in the right direction, while U.S. production is stable and with OPEC+ sticking to their gradual 400,000 bpd increase plan,” said Edward Moya, senior analyst at OANDA.

Oil rallied to multi-year highs last week, helped by a post-pandemic demand rebound and the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries and allies led by Russia, or OPEC+, sticking to gradual, monthly production increases of 400,000 barrels per day (BPD), despite calls for more oil from major consumers.

The increase in OPEC’s oil output in October fell short of the rise planned under a deal with allies, a Reuters survey found on Monday, as involuntary outages in some smaller producers offset higher supplies from Saudi Arabia and Iraq.

OPEC pumped 27.50 million barrels per day (BPD) in October, the survey found, a rise of 190,000 BPD from the previous month but below the 254,000 increase permitted under the supply deal.

Meanwhile, national crude firms in China have ramped up refinery run rates, increasing their appetite for fuel, to avert a diesel shortage in the world’s second-largest oil user.
