خلیج عمان کی ترسیل میں رکاوٹ سے تیل $200 تک پہنچ سکتا ہے، عالمی تاجر کی وارننگ

Russell Hardy, CEO of Vitol Group, the world's largest independent oil trader, warned that crude prices could hit $200 a barrel if ship-to-ship transfers in the Gulf of Oman are interrupted. These transfers are vital for keeping Middle East oil flowing to global markets, with Hardy noting that Western oil inventories are already drained. Continued disruption of these critical supply lines would trigger a severe oil shock. Such a significant surge in crude prices would likely fuel global inflation, potentially boosting safe-haven demand for gold and putting upward pressure on USD/PKR due to increased import costs.
