## Oman Port Hit: Can Reserve Release Prevent Oil Spike?

Oman's key oil export terminal, Mina Al Fahal, was evacuated and two crude tankers were attacked in Iraqi waters, sending oil prices soaring. Brent crude jumped above $100 a barrel, with West Texas Intermediate surging near $96. The International Energy Agency (IEA) responded with a historic 400-million-barrel release from strategic reserves, aiming to cool prices and offset supply disruptions ¹ ² ³.

### Impact on Global Oil Supply

- *Strait of Hormuz Closure*: A fifth of global oil flows through this vital waterway, now effectively closed.

- *Oman Oil Exports*: 1 million barrels a day from Mina Al Fahal, impacted by the evacuation.

- *Iraq and Saudi Arabia*: Oil production cuts exacerbate supply concerns.

### Market Response

- *IEA Release*: 400 million barrels, largest-ever coordinated release, aims to stabilize prices.

- *US Strategic Reserve*: 172 million barrels to be released, adding to global efforts.

- *Price Volatility*: Brent crude remains above $100, with traders watching for further disruptions.

### Expert Insights

- "The only thing that's really going to bring oil prices back down is if we really see the Strait of Hormuz reopen," says Neil Beveridge, Sanford C. Bernstein & Co..

- "The pace of these supplies will hit the market only covers a fraction of the supply losses," warns Warren Patterson, ING Groep NV ¹ ².

### What's Next?

With tensions high and supply disruptions likely to persist, investors are watching for further developments. The IEA's move may provide temporary relief, but the situation remains volatile.

Oil Pullback While Banks See $120: Is the War Risk Still On The Table?

Iran is implementing a “targeted strategy”: instead of indiscriminately blocking all shipping lanes, it is allowing only vessels from specific countries to pass. Analysts warn that the global oil market is severely underestimating the disruptive impact of this strategy. Due to the extreme lack of transparency in passage criteria, war risk premiums have not declined—instead, they continue to surge because of unpredictable risks. Although oil prices have recently pulled back, Has the risk ended? Will Brent crude break above Citi’s projected $120 ceiling and surge toward $140?
