Standard Chartered commodities analysts expect oil prices to remain supported at high levels, amid continued deadlock between the United States and Iran and rising material risks that threaten crude exports from the Gulf region, despite the recent decline in oil prices alongside signs that some supply pressure may be eased.
The bank said the postponement of the diplomatic meeting scheduled between Iran and Gulf countries on commercial navigation through the Strait of Hormuz dashed near-term hopes for de-escalation, especially as disagreements between Arab states about the meeting persist. This keeps geopolitical risk a key factor in oil pricing.
Standard Chartered believes that damage to the Saudi east-west oil pipeline has significantly increased near-term risks to crude exports, with an expectation that the main alternative route to the Yanbu port will remain largely out of service for several weeks. The line is of particular importance because it gives Saudi Arabia a way to export oil to the Red Sea away from the Strait of Hormuz.
