Oil Flows Through Strait of Hormuz Face Prolonged Disruptions Amid Regional Tensions
Oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz are unlikely to return to pre-war levels by 2027 due to ongoing tensions and attacks on commercial vessels. Iran has employed guerrilla tactics, including limpet mines and undersea drones, to disrupt oil flows amid U.S.-Iran conflicts. OPEC producers have maintained December production targets, with a key meeting planned for November 29 to decide 2027 output. Meanwhile, India's crude sourcing is shifting, with increased imports from the Atlantic Basin offsetting Gulf declines.
