How the war in Iran affects the oil market
The recent joint military offensive by the United States and Israel against Iran has once again placed oil and its derivatives at the centre of the global stage. Beyond the political and military dimensions of the conflict, the energy market reacts primarily to one key variable: the risk of supply disruption. The Middle East accounts for a critical share of global crude production and exports. Iran is not only a significant producer, but also holds a strategic position along the Strait of Hormuz, through which roughly 20% of the world’s seaborne oil trade passes. Iran is also one of China’s main suppliers, meaning any disruption could heighten tensions between two of the world’s most powerful economies. In short, any threat – real or perceived – to that route has an immediate impact on prices. In this article, we analyse the potential trajectory of oil prices.
