The Problem With Trying to Bypass Hormuz Using Pipelines | OilPrice.com (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The East-West Pipeline in Saudi Arabia, which delivers oil to the shores of the Red Sea, has been an important workaround to the choking of tanker traffic by Iran in the Strait of Hormuz, the only exit for tankers from the Persian Gulf to the open sea. The Saudi government claims that 7 million barrels per day (mbpd) of crude oil can flow westward through the pipeline to the port of Yanbu, though the current exports are thought to be lower (perhaps 5 mbpd) than that given infrastructure restrain
Conflict and Climate Are Driving Food Prices Higher | OilPrice.com (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Two weeks ago, I wrote about how conflict and climate change are combining to impede navigation across the globe. That same combination is also pushing food supply down and prices up worldwide.

But a Trump administration spokesperson said the administration has no plans to ban exports of oil or natural gas products. It's important to note
Why the U.S. Can't Easily Exit the Iran Conflict | OilPrice.com (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A monkey trap offers a reward such as food that, when grasped, makes the hand too large to withdraw from the hole in the trap giving access to that food. Unless the monkey lets go, the animal is stuck. Now, the obvious choice when danger arrives is to simply let go and run. But, supposedly, monkeys won't let go even as human hunters approach and then club them to death. The war with Iran has become the Trump administration's monkey trap; potential victory over Iran is the prize in the trap. Stra
