Saudi Arabia resumes oil exports after pipeline repairs

mathrubhumi.com (Malayalam) —

Saudi Arabia has resumed oil exports through its east-west pipeline after completing repairs following a drone attack on September 10. The pipeline's operation was restored after maintenance work was finished. Saudi Aramco conducted inspections last week before restarting crude movement for export. The pipeline serves as a key alternative export route, and Saudi Arabia has also increased shipments through the Strait of Hormuz this month. The pipeline has a capacity of 7 million barrels daily, with about 2 million typically sent to western refineries. Oil prices rose above $107 per barrel Monday amid ongoing US-Iran disagreements over a ceasefire deal.
