Global oil prices experienced a reduction in early gains on Monday afternoon, though they remained above the $95 per barrel mark. This moderation in price followed an announcement by President Trump that peace talks with Iran are back on track.

The initial rise in oil prices had been attributed to a recent escalation of attacks between the United States and Iran.
