Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continue to drive crude oil price volatility, with recent military actions disrupting flows through the Strait of Hormuz and prompting widespread production shut-ins across Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and the UAE. These developments have lifted Brent benchmarks above $110 per barrel in May 2026, building on earlier surges past $100 amid inventory drawdowns and elevated summer demand. Traders assess the likelihood of surpassing the historical peak near $147 by weighing ongoing supply constraints against potential de-escalation or gradual resumption of shipping lanes later in the year. Broader factors include OPEC+ output decisions, global inventory trends, and any new diplomatic signals that could ease risk premiums embedded in current pricing.
