Oil Prices Decline Amid Saudi Efforts to Restore Pipeline and Ease Supply Concerns
Oil prices fell for a third consecutive session but remained above $100 a barrel as Saudi Arabia worked to restore its key East-West pipeline and arranged additional crude shipments through Oman. These efforts eased immediate supply concerns despite ongoing tensions and attacks involving Saudi Arabia and Yemen's Iran-backed Houthis. Market participants remain cautious due to geopolitical risks in the Middle East and the Russia-Ukraine conflict, while demand factors and inventory levels also influence price movements.
