NYMEX-Crude rises on dollar slip, Wall St. bounce

* Dollar weaker as Greece rescue talk lifts euro

* U.S. stocks open higher on Greece talk, analyst views

NEW YORK, Feb 9 (Reuters) - U.S. crude oil futures rose on
Tuesday, lifted by the dollar's slip against the euro as Wall
Street bounced on the same talk of help for Greece that was
bolstering the euro.

Cold weather boosted heating oil futures and market sources
also eyed geopolitical turmoil in Nigeria and Iran, as well as
anticipating the week's oil inventory reports.

"Crude and product futures pushed higher on moderate
overnight volume as the dollar lost ground and U.S. index
futures are trading to the upside," Addison Armstrong, analyst
at Tradition Energy in Stamford, Connecticut, said in a note.

The euro rose against the U.S. dollar, boosted by
speculation about a bailout of debt-laden Greece. [USD/]

Rescue talk emerged after European Central Bank and Reserve
Bank of Australia officials said ECB President Jean-Claude
Trichet was cutting short a trip to Australia to attend a Feb.
11 European Council meeting. [ID:nSGE61801C]
