New York's main contract, light sweet crude for delivery in October, climbed 47 cents to close at 63.90 dollars per barrel.
In London, Brent North Sea crude for November delivery gained 72 cents to 64.05 dollars per barrel.
Crude futures have fell nearly 20 percent from its record 78.40 dollars per barrel in mid-July, as demand was downgraded and supply worries eased.
Meanwhile, traders still worry about the possibility that Iran's oil exports would halt if the United Nations imposed international sanctions on Teheran for its nuclear activities.
Iran is OPEC's second largest producer following Saudi Arabia, pumping 4 million barrels of crude oil and exporting 2.4 million barrels per day.
