Saudi Arabia resumes pipeline oil flow
Saudi Arabia has restored oil flows through the East-West pipeline to 5.8 million barrels per day after a temporary disruption. This recovery occurred within five to six days following the attack targeting the pipeline. Minister of Energy Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman confirmed that the resumption of flows was possible thanks to the nationalization program of the energy sector, which enhanced the pipeline's capacity, and an increase in export capacity to about 7 million barrels per day through technology improvements and pressure reduction measures. The East-West pipeline is considered strategically important and aims to reduce dependence on the Strait of Hormuz. It is part of Saudi Arabia's efforts to ensure oil supply security and modernize its energy infrastructure.
