Strait of Hormuz Nearly Halts, Gulf Oil-Producing Nations Lose Approximately $15.1 Billion in Energy Revenue

GateNews

Gate News reports that on March 13, according to the Financial Times, since the United States and Israel launched military strikes against Iran, the Gulf oil-producing countries have suffered an estimated $15.1 billion in energy revenue losses due to the near halt of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. A large amount of crude oil has been stranded as transportation is obstructed. The Strait of Hormuz is one of the world’s most important energy transit routes, typically carrying about one-fifth of global oil trade flow. The current regional conflict has led to a significant reduction in tanker shipments, with millions of barrels of crude oil unable to be exported, impacting Middle Eastern energy supplies and the global oil market.
