Kuwait Resumes Oil Exports via Strait of Hormuz, Reaching Two-Thirds of Pre-War Levels

Kuwait has resumed oil exports through the Strait of Hormuz, with volumes already at nearly two-thirds of pre-war levels, following a conflict involving the USA and Israel. The resumption signals a partial restoration of Gulf energy flows, though the timeline and full capacity remain uncertain. This development eases supply disruption concerns but does not yet indicate a full normalization of regional oil trade.

Kuwait Oil Exports Partially Recover via STS and Hormuz Amid Tensions

Kuwait's crude oil exports have partially recovered to approximately 1 million bpd, representing two-thirds of pre-conflict levels. This recovery is attributed to both the resumption of exports via the Strait of Hormuz and the utilization of ship-to-ship (STS) transfers outside the Strait, indicating market adaptation to persistent Iran-related tensions. The reliance on STS transfers suggests ongoing disruption risk despite the partial normalization of supply routes.
