If you're looking for exchange traded funds (ETFs) to buy right now, then you could do a lot worse than the high-quality options that are listed below.

Here's why they could add some oomph to your portfolio:

BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF (ASX: ASIA)

The first ASX ETF for investors to look at is the BetaShares Asia Technology Tigers ETF. This ETF gives investors easy access to ~50 of the largest technology companies that have their main area of business in Asia.

These tigers include well-known players such as Alibaba, Baidu, Infosys, JD.com, Samsung, and Tencent Holdings.

Alibaba, for example, is a multinational technology company specialising in e-commerce through its Alibaba, AliExpress, Taobao, and Tmall platforms. It has an active customer base closing in on 1 billion.

Whereas Tencent, which owns the WeChat mega app, has already surpassed this milestone. The company currently has over 1.3 billion active users on its platform.

BetaShares Global Energy Companies ETF (ASX: FUEL)

Another ETF that investors might want to consider right now is the BetaShares Global Energy Companies ETF.

As its name implies, this ETF give investors exposure to the energy sector, which looks well-placed to benefit from higher oil prices in the near. Especially given how OPEC plans to cut production to support prices.

And while there are plenty of ways to gain exposure to this thematic on the Australian share market, this ETF could still be well worth considering.

For example, BetaShares notes that the companies in the ETF are larger, more geographically diversified, and more vertically integrated than Australian-listed energy companies.

Among the ETF's holdings are giants such as BP, Chevron, ConocoPhillips, ExxonMobil, Halliburton, Kinder Morgan, Phillips 66, Royal Dutch Shell, and Total.
