Washington, September 02 (QNA) – US Secretary of Energy Chris Wright revealed that 17 million oil barrels transited the Strait of Hormuz on Monday.
Wright explained that this was the highest level of crude oil to pass through the waterway since the Iran war had reduced flows.
Meanwhile, early trade on Wednesday saw oil prices rise by nearly 1%, continuing the previous session’s increase, as fears of supply disruption increased after Washington resuming strikes last night.
Brent crude futures rose 87 cents or 0.92% to $95.52. West Texas Intermediate (WTI) futures rose 80 cents or 0.89% to $91.02.
Both contracts rose more than $4 Tuesday, Brent’s biggest gain since July 24, and WTI’s biggest since July 23.
