  Oil rises, as US-Iran strikes risk limiting already impaired supplies
  Brent crude prices were marginally higher in a volatile session on Wednesday, driven by renewed military strikes between the United States and Iran that have restricted world oil supply. The U.S.-Iran war is now in its seventh month, with the recent... Read more Brent crude prices were marginally higher in a volatile session on Wednesday, driven by renewed military strikes between the United States and Iran that have restricted world oil supply.
  
  The U.S.-Iran war is now in its seventh month, with the recent attacks representing the biggest exchange of fire between Tehran and Washington since July. U.S. forces struck Iran’s southern coast and Iran fired on American bases across the region.
  
  Brent crude futures rose 25 cents to $94.90 a barrel by 10:48 a.m. ET (1448 GMT), while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures were up 10 cents at $90.32.
  
  The two benchmarks swung between gains of as much as $2 a barrel and losses of $1 a barrel throughout the session. The earlier gains pushed both benchmarks to their highest levels since July 24.
  
  The ongoing war, which kicked off with joint U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iranian targets in late February, resulted in the effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway that carried about a fifth of global oil and LNG consumed before the conflict.
  
  "While the increase in conflicts will slow transit through the Strait of Hormuz in the near term, the market has absorbed the fact that workaround crude oil supplies can still make it to the market eventually," said Dennis Kissler, senior vice president of trading at BOK Financial.
  
  Nations worldwide have relied on their reserves, which have also dwindled.
  
  The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the U.S. attacks would further restrict traffic through the strait.
  
  However, U.S. Secretary of Energy Chris ‌Wright claimed on Tuesday that 17 million barrels of ⁠oil transited the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, which he said was the largest volume of crude to pass through the waterway since the Iran ⁠war began.
  
  However, four commodity vessels transited the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday, down from 10 a day earlier and below the 10-day average of around 13, preliminary Kpler shipping data showed on Wednesday. Two oil tankers hit sea mines and were disabled while attempting to transit the strait, Iran’s Revolutionary Guards said on Wednesday in a statement shared by state media.
  
  Iraq boosted its oil exports in August, with September shipments also set to climb, as wide profits and Iranian approval for its tankers to pass through the Strait of Hormuz have encouraged buyers, according to industry sources and shipping data.
  
  OPEC+ is likely to keep its oil output policy unchanged for October at a meeting on Sunday, three sources close to the matter told Reuters, as the producer group completes the unwinding of one layer of production cuts this month and turns its focus to 2027 quota negotiations.
  
  Elsewhere, Russia carried out a heavy missile and drone attack on energy infrastructure in Ukraine’s southern region of Odesa overnight, transmission system operator Ukrenergo said on Wednesday.
  
  In the U.S., crude oil inventories fell by 4.5 million barrels last week, the Energy Information Administration said on Wednesday, compared with analysts’ expectations in a Reuters poll for a 1.1 million-barrel draw. Source: Reuters/Investing.com

Read more US crude oil stockpiles decreased by 4.5 million barrels to 424.5 million barrels in the week ended August 28, the Energy Information Administration reported today.
  
  The decline exceeded analyst expectations of a 1.1 million-barrel reduction.
  
  Crude stocks at the Cushing, Oklahoma delivery hub increased by 80,000 barrels during the week.
  
  Refinery crude runs rose by 103,000 barrels per day, while utilization rates climbed 0.6 percentage points to 98%.
  
  Gasoline inventories fell by 1.2 million barrels to 205.7 million barrels. Analysts had predicted a larger draw of 1.8 million barrels.
  
  Distillate stockpiles, which include diesel and heating oil, rose by 0.8 million barrels to 104.2 million barrels. This contrasted with analyst forecasts for a 1.3 million-barrel decline.
  
  Net US crude imports decreased by 79,000 barrels per day during the week. Source: Investing.com

  Odfjell doubles down on wind propulsion
  Norwegian tanker operator Odfjell has ordered a wind-assisted propulsion system (WAPS) retrofit for a second tanker.

Read more Norwegian tanker operator Odfjell has ordered a wind-assisted propulsion system (WAPS) retrofit for a second tanker.
  
  Spanish wind-assisted propulsion technology firm Bound4Blue will install four 22-metre-high rigid suction sails on Odfjell’s 49,000-dwt chemical tanker Bow Optima.
  
  The retrofit is scheduled to take place in China in the second quarter of 2027. It follows the installation of the same technology on Odfjell-operated tanker Bow Olympus in March 2025.
  
  Bound4Blue’s system uses rigid, wing-shaped sails with suction technology to control airflow around their surface and generate additional thrust from the wind, reducing the vessel’s engine use and fuel consumption.
  
  Odfjell has reported energy savings of 15-20% from the system in “good, but not perfect, wind conditions”, Bound4Blue said. This is equivalent to fuel savings of around 5 mt/day and emissions reductions of about 15 mtCO2e/day.
  
  Odfjell's fuel consumption reductions have reached as high as 40% under some operating conditions, Bound4Blue added.
  
  WAPS can help shipowners lower exposure to fuel price fluctuations and comply with emissions regulations such as FuelEU Maritime and EU ETS by reducing fuel consumption, the company said. Source: ENGIИE

  Oil prices extend gains as US and Iran trade fresh strikes

Brent... Read more Oil prices rose in early trade on Wednesday, extending the previous session’s surge, as concerns over supply disruption intensified after the U.S. and Iran exchanged strikes overnight, dimming hopes for a quick easing of tensions in the Middle East.
  
  Brent crude futures rose 75 cents, or 0.8%, to $95.40 a barrel by 0345 GMT, while U.S. West Texas Intermediate crude futures climbed 44 cents, or 0.5%, to $90.66.
  
  Both contracts soared more than $4 on Tuesday, marking Brent’s largest gain since July 24 and WTI’s largest since July 23.
  
  The U.S. said it had launched a series of airstrikes against targets in Iran overnight, prompting a response from Tehran, in the most serious escalation of the conflict between the two countries in weeks.
  
  The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps said the U.S. attacks would further restrict traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, a critical waterway that carried about one-fifth of the global oil consumed before the conflict and which Iran has effectively closed to commercial shipping.
  
  "Developments in recent days brought risks to regional oil supplies back into focus...We’ve seen oil flow through the Strait of Hormuz despite the stalemate between the US and Iran, but rising tensions clearly put crossings at risk," said ING analysts in a client note.
  
  The IRGC also said it had targeted a U.S. military base in Jordan with ballistic missiles that it claimed had killed a large number of U.S. forces, while Iranian state media reported a large-scale drone attack on a U.S. base in Bahrain in response to the American strikes.
  
  Jordan’s military said its air defences intercepted 10 of 13 ballistic missiles that entered its airspace, while two U.S. officials said no American casualties had been reported so far from the attacks. Separately, Kuwait said its armed forces were responding to hostile drone activity.
  
  The latest exchange followed a weekend flare-up in hostilities, the first since July, and came after attacks on two tankers departing the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, causing further disruptions to oil supplies and forcing traders to seek alternative crude shipments.
  
  "The oil market is no longer pricing just the risk of war; it is increasingly pricing the cost of an unresolved war," said Priyanka Sachdeva, Phillip Nova’s head of market insights.
  
  "Until there is clear evidence that negotiations can produce a lasting resolution and that normal oil flows through the Strait are returning, the risk premium in crude is likely to remain elevated."
  
  Meanwhile, in the U.S., the world’s largest oil producer, crude inventories fell by 2.6 million barrels in the week ended August 28, while distillate stocks, which include diesel and heating oil, declined by 265,000 barrels, market sources said, citing data from the American Petroleum Institute.

  Oil Prices Rally as U.S. Targets Iranian Tankers in New Escalation
  Oil prices climbed once again in early Asian trade on Wednesday as the U.S. and Iran traded strikes in a significant escalation after a month of relative calm. At the time of writing, WTI had climbed to $91.05 per barrel, trading 0.92% higher on the... Read more Oil prices climbed once again in early Asian trade on Wednesday as the U.S. and Iran traded strikes in a significant escalation after a month of relative calm.
  
  At the time of writing, WTI had climbed to $91.05 per barrel, trading 0.92% higher on the session, and Brent had risen 1.19% to trade at $95.68. Both benchmarks have now climbed by roughly $5 since hostilities between the two countries renewed.
  
  U.S. Central Command (Centcom) reported that it had completed a wave of strikes against “air defense sites, radar systems, maritime assets and facilities, mine laying capabilities, and communications sites.” The strikes were in retaliation for the IRGC targeting commercial shipping in the Strait of Hormuz and U.S. service members in the region.
  
  Axios later reported that the U.S. had struck two Iranian tankers as part of a new ‘tanker for tanker’ policy in the Strait. This was the first time the U.S. had attacked Iranian tankers in retaliation rather than as part of its ongoing blockade.
  
  The IRGC claimed to have attacked Camp Titin, a US Marine facility on the Gulf of Aqaba, in response to U.S. aggression. Jordan’s armed forces confirmed that its air defence systems had “dealt with” 13 ballistic missiles fired from Iranian territory, with 10 of them being destroyed and three falling in remote areas.
  
  The IRGC also claimed to have attacked U.S. targets in Bahrain and Kuwait, with Kuwait confirming that its air defences were “actively engaging with missile and drone threats” from Iran and Bahrain saying it had successfully intercepted Iranian drones. The IRGC also said, via the IRNA News Agency, that it had shot down an MQ-9 drone belonging to the U.S. military. That claim remains unconfirmed.
  
  In response to an ABC News report that the latest round of economic and military pressure from the U.S. was an attempt to force Iran back to the negotiation table, President Trump posted on social media that he “couldn’t care less” if Iran signs an agreement. He went on to ask, “when are the Iranian people going to rise up and fight?”
  
  Adding to the upward pressure on oil prices, the American Petroleum Institute reported a 2.6 million barrel draw in U.S. oil inventories, while another 3.1 million barrels were drawn from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve to aid commercial inventories. Traders will be closely watching Wednesday’s release of the EIA inventory data for confirmation of those numbers.
  
  This latest escalation may well mark a turning point in the conflict after a month of relative calm. For Iran, as economic pressure mounts, there appears to be few options left beyond further military retaliation. The Iranian rial fell to a record low in August, breaking the psychologically important 2 million rial per dollar mark, and it remains to be seen just how much economic pain the regime can tolerate. For oil markets, another period of significant volatility seems likely as disrupting crude flows remains Iran’s most influential weapon. Source: Oilprice.com
