Oil, gas supplies could take months to return to normal after Iran deal, energy experts say
The recent Iran deal is expected to take months to have a significant impact on oil and gasoline prices, as well as energy supply problems. Energy experts believe that the process of shipping and refining crude oil will be slow due to security concerns and the time it takes for ships to travel through the Strait of Hormuz. The return to normal oil and gas supplies will likely be a gradual process, with some countries resuming production more quickly than others.
- ▪Ships loaded with crude oil have been stranded in the Persian Gulf for over three months, unable to safely travel through the Strait of Hormuz.
- ▪The slow pace of shipping and refining crude oil, as well as doubts about security, will delay the return to normal energy supplies.
- ▪Some oil producers in the Middle East have paused extraction due to a lack of storage space, and restarting these operations will be a slow process.
