Houthi strikes threaten Saudi East-West pipeline, risking 3-4M b/d exports

Houthi strikes on Saudi oil infrastructure now threaten the East-West pipeline, which could jeopardize 3-4 million b/d of Saudi crude exports. Brent has risen to $105 and Middle Eastern crude to $120, though Gulf foreign ministers' weekend meeting has tempered prices. The attack marks an escalation targeting a critical bypass route, with supply disruption risk driving market volatility.
