On September 15, informed sources stated that Saudi Arabia is seeking to further increase its oil supply exported through the Strait of Hormuz. In the first ten days of this month, the amount of crude oil transported through the Strait has already increased compared to August, and the country is looking to expand supply further. Sources revealed that at the beginning of September, Saudi Arabia raised its overall export volume to nearly 4 million barrels per day, with about 1 million barrels per day exported through the Strait of Hormuz and the remainder through the port of Yanbu on the Red Sea coast. Previously, in August, Saudi exports had fallen to about 3 million barrels per day, the lowest level in at least nine years according to shipping tracking data from Vortexa and Kpler. It remains unclear how quickly Saudi Aramco can increase its Hormuz export volume to compensate for the impact of pipeline outages. Additionally, a shortage of tankers has also become a limiting factor. Saudi Aramco declined to comment, and the Saudi Ministry of Energy stated that there were no additional comments beyond the statement released last Friday. Two regional officials indicated that the East-West pipeline will be out of operation for several weeks. Meanwhile, U.S. Energy Secretary Granholm expects the pipeline to be back in operation 'soon.'
