Brent Crude Oil rose $1.61 to $110.40 per barrel during Wednesday morning trade, driven by escalating supply risks in the Middle East. The gain follows a previous session decline after diplomatic mediation efforts temporarily eased market concerns. Falling domestic inventories in the United States continue to provide price support for global energy markets.
