Crude oil exports returned to pre-war levels

France 24 reports that crude oil exports have returned to pre-war levels, with partial resumption of tanker traffic in the Strait of Hormuz and the Arabian Peninsula reorganizing oil flows through pipelines such as the Saudi east-west pipeline or those leading to Fujairah in the Gulf of Oman. However, tensions remain over refined products. While G7 members agreed to release 100 million barrels from strategic reserves, China has resumed buying oil to replenish its stockpiles.
