Oil prices rose as a result of tensions between the US and Iran and tankers were banned in the Gulf

Oil prices rose slightly against the backdrop of increased tensions in the Americas and Iraq, and a Gulf tanker was banned. The U.S. Energy Information Agency reports that crude oil stocks have declined less than expected, and the market sees this as a sign of supply stability. Despite the intensification of hostilities between Washington and Tehran, the market response to this risk has been relatively modest. The analysts noted that, as Gulf exports returned to half of pre-war levels, this dynamic could again dominate if the conflict persisted。
