Oil prices jump on tanker attacks and slowing flows through Strait of Hormuz

ft.com

Global oil prices jumped on Thursday following reports of a tanker attack off the north coast of Qatar and a sharp decline in vessel transit through the Strait of Hormuz. Traffic through the vital Middle Eastern waterway had recovered to nearly 90 percent of pre-war levels last month before dropping off during escalating regional security threats. The renewed supply bottlenecks sent Brent crude futures past $104 per barrel. The disruption threatens to undo recent gains in export volumes and forces refiners to reassess transport routes. Energy markets remain on edge as commercial shipping incidents mount in the Gulf.
