International benchmarks for crude oil registered moderate gains on Tuesday, 21 September 2021 as members of OPEC and allies produced less than expected in August, indicating that the supply-demand gap might persist.

Brent gains 44 cents to close at $74.36/barrel.

WTI for October delivery, which expired on Tuesday, advanced 27 cents at $70.56/barrel.
