    OIL rose towards US$56 a barrel on Thursday, recovering from part of the previous session's drop, although traders and analysts said the prospect of a further, sustained rally from near six-year lows looked weak.

    Crude snapped a four-day winning streak on Wednesday, when the US government said crude inventories increased by 6.3 million barrels, rising for a fourth consecutive week to hit a record high.
