Middle East Oil Recovery

Middle East Oil Exports Recover to Pre-War Levels

Middle East oil exports recovered to pre-Iran war levels in September, with producers using alternative routes and ship-to-ship transfers to bypass Hormuz, according to DW. Al Jazeera reported exports surpassed pre-war levels despite tensions, citing an IRGC commander who said flows through the US-supervised Hormuz route were 'negligible'. Iranian exports remain below the pre-war average.
