Hard Money Herald on Nostr: Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline exists for one reason: route crude to the Red Sea ...
Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline exists for one reason: route crude to the Red Sea if the Strait of Hormuz closes. It is the bypass.
The pipeline was attacked. It is running 700,000 barrels per day below capacity.
There is no working bypass. WTI at $96 is not pricing two major chokepoints impaired at the same time.
