LONDON—Oil prices rose on Tuesday for a second day on increasing concerns about tightening European supply after Russia, a key energy supplier to the region, cut gas supply through a major pipeline.

Brent crude futures rose $1.14, or 1.1 percent, to $106.29 a barrel by 1029 GMT, extending a 1.9 percent gain the previous day.
