LONDON—Oil prices rose on Friday and were broadly flat on the week as concern over oil demand growth was balanced by Saudi output cuts.

Brent crude futures rose 36 cents, or 0.5 percent, to $76.32 a barrel by 0932 GMT while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude was up 34 cents, or 0.5 percent, at $71.63.
