Oil prices have held steady below $100 per barrel since the U.S. on Monday initiated a naval blockade to deter Iran-linked ships from passing through the Strait of Hormuz. The three days of calmer oil futures markets so far this week aren’t expected to last long amid the volatile geopolitical situation at the world’s most vital oil shipping lane. The price of oil has the potential to either surge to new highs or slump to pre-war levels, depending on the U.S.-Iran talks, but most of all—on the status of navigability of the Strait…

Oil markets clawed back their recent losses, with oil prices rallying after Congress voted in favor of keeping the U.S. military in Iran. The House rejected a resolution requiring President Trump to withdraw U.S. forces from the conflict with Iran, with Republicans largely supporting continued intervention, citing the need to tackle Iran's nuclear capabilities. Brent crude for June delivery gained 4.7% to trade at $101.7 per barrel 6:.44 pm ET on Thursday, while WTI crude spiked over 4% immediately after the vote, but by evening was trading down…

Damage caused to energy infrastructure in Gulf states would cost $58 billion to repair, Rystad Energy estimated this week, suggesting the fallout of the war between the U.S. and Israel, and Iran is more severe than futures market-focused observers would assume, because just two weeks ago, Rystad had calculated the damage at less than half that amount. According to the International Energy Agency’s head, Fatih Birol, more than 80 oil and gas facilities in Gulf states have been damaged in U.S. and Israeli attacks on Iran's oil and gas facilities…

It could take up to two years to restore a meaningful share of oil and gas production lost in the Iran war, according to International Energy Agency chief Fatih Birol. That timeline matters because markets are still treating the disruption as temporary. It isn’t. Oil fields, refineries, and pipelines have sustained damage across the Persian Gulf. The Strait of Hormuz has also been largely shut, cutting off a key export route for crude and fuels. Together, those disruptions have removed hundreds of millions of barrels from the market. In an…

India’s central bank has told state-run oil refiners to stop buying dollars in the spot market and instead use a government-backed credit line. That matters because oil is priced in dollars, and refiners are some of the biggest buyers of dollars in the country. When they all go into the market at once to pay for crude, it puts direct pressure on the rupee. That pressure has been building for weeks. The Reserve Bank of India is now stepping in to manage the demand. State refiners, including Indian Oil Corporation, Hindustan Petroleum Corporation,…

While most countries manage their nuclear energy as a public sector, controlled and maintained by the state, the United States takes a uniquely American – which is to say, privatized – approach. As the tech sector becomes increasingly involved in nuclear energy and in the energy industry as a whole thanks to the insatiable energy needs of the AI boom, the nuclear energy landscape is changing. While there are some benefits to letting private interests compete in the nuclear energy sector in significant numbers, there are also considerable…

The escalation of conflict across the Middle East and the disruption to energy flows through the Strait of Hormuz have introduced a variable into the maritime energy transition that regulatory frameworks were never designed to handle: the possibility that conventional marine fuel becomes unavailable because competing domestic priorities absorb the available supply. This changes the analytical framing for clean shipping in a big way. Until now, the investment case for alternative marine fuels has been driven by compliance – organized around…

Norway could unlock volumes comparable to the Johan Sverdrup field from its existing oil and gas assets—but only if it moves quickly. In a tightening global market, advanced recovery may represent one of the few scalable sources of new supply. Norway’s mature continental shelf still holds hundreds of millions of barrels of recoverable oil and gas—but the window to extract them is closing. New analysis backed by the Norwegian Offshore Directorate suggests that advanced Enhanced Oil and Gas Recovery (EOGR) methods could unlock between…

A U.S.-Iran peace deal is not weeks away. Officials in the Gulf region are bracing for a timeline closer to six months. The Strait of Hormuz remains effectively shut. Flows are nowhere near normal. Gulf exporters are unable to move crude, LNG, and refined products at scale. That is already showing up in prices. Brent climbed nearly 5% on Thursday to trade above $99 per barrel and remains roughly 36% higher since the war began in late February. Leaders in the region want the Strait reopened immediately, and their concern goes well beyond energy.…
