On the New York Mercantile Exchange, West Texas Intermediate for December delivery rose $0.67 and 0.93% to settle at $72.36 a barrel.
Brent crude oil for January delivery, which is subject to international market comparisons, closed at $75.63 a barrel, up $0.71 and 0.95% from the previous session.
Oil prices rose reflexively as the dollar index, which soared 1.6% the previous day, fell 0.73% to 104.3 levels.
As crude oil is denominated in dollars, a rise in the value of the dollar could dampen demand for crude oil from raw buyers using other currencies.
