Investing.com - Oil moved higher Friday as the focus turned to talks this weekend between OPEC and non-OPEC members on output cuts.
U.S. crude was up 36 cents, or 0.71%, at $51.20 at 07:30 ET, while Brent crude added 0.35% to $54.08.
OPEC last month agreed to cut output by 1.2 million barrels a day to 32.5 million barrels.
Non-OPEC producers have been asked to chip in with cuts of around 600,000 barrels a day.
Russia has indicated it will contemplate a cut of about 300,000 barrels a day.
Investors are also looking to Baker Hughes weekly U.S. rig count data due out later Friday.
A pick-up in oil prices could encourage greater activity by North American shale drillers.
The dollar index was firm. A stronger dollar weakens demand for oil.
