🇾🇩 Saudi Energy Minister Prince Abdulaziz bin Salman said oil through the East-West pipeline hit 5.8 million barrels a day by this AM.

The line runs to Yanbu on the Red Sea, bypassing the Strait of Hormuz.

Riyadh had been using it to move about 4 million barrels a day, roughly 4% of global supply, after the US-Israeli war on Iran disrupted Gulf exports.

Drone strikes blamed on Iraqi militias shut the line on September 11. Flows have since restarted.
