“Prices have risen by more than 11% over the week amid supply constraints and strong fuel demand from the shipping sector. Producers are facing higher freight rates and risk premiums for shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, increasing uncertainty over future oil supplies from the region. Iranian strikes on oil tankers in the strait have sharply reduced oil flows. In the week ending October 13, average daily oil flows fell to 11.62 million barrels from the previous baseline of 17.15 million barrels.
Security risks in the Persian Gulf have had a significant impact on rising oil prices. At the same time, Ukrainian drone attacks on oil refineries in Russia have further constrained fuel supplies. In addition, US crude oil inventories fell by 8.56 million barrels in the week ending October 9,” the report said.
