Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East remain the dominant driver of crude oil price movements, with joint U.S. and Israeli air strikes on Iran in late February triggering sharp supply disruptions. The de facto closure of the Strait of Hormuz halted tanker traffic, prompting major producers including Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and the UAE to shut in millions of barrels per day while attacks targeted regional energy infrastructure. Brent crude surged to $138 per barrel in early April before easing to around $107–$111 by mid-May amid partial inventory draws and shifting forecasts. Traders are monitoring summer demand peaks, potential Strait reopening timelines, OPEC+ production adjustments, and any de-escalation signals that could restore flows or alternatively sustain upward pressure through prolonged disruptions.
