"The actual real buying is patchy and thin at the moment," said Tom James, Asian manager for oil and commodity
derivatives at Credit Lyonnais Rouse.

"The real buying will come in once they've proved that they are going to do what they promised," he added.

But he said that with Saudi Arabian support for the recent agreement, oil prices could sustain the rebound and were
unlikely repeat the volatile pattern seen in the past month.

He saw prices of WTI staying around the $16.00 level and Brent rising to around $15.00.

"Saudi has taken the lead, so the other OPEC members will come in to support the market," he said.

"So even if the market starts to fall, OPEC members will be much more likely to step in to support prices. So you've got
the fundamental support from the backing of other members which wasn't there before," he added.

James said that expectations of a rise in U.S. demand as U.S. refiners start to emerge from annual maintenance
turnarounds would add an additional bullish factor.
