The recovery could drag into 2027 [Read more]

He said that the energy supply shock that began in the first-quarter was the largest the world has ever experienced, and that if disruption of shipping in the Strait of Hormuz--linked to the U.S.-Iran conflict--continues for a few more weeks, normalization in the oil market would not happen until 2027.

Oil market will lose around 100 million barrels every week, if Strait of Hormuz remains closed, Aramco CEO says
The oil market will lose around 100 million barrels every week, if the disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz continue at the current rate and it remains closed, the CEO of Saudi oil giant Aramco, Amin Nasser, said on Monday.
