Brent surged more than 6% to trade above $100 per barrel on Thursday, extending gains for a fifth consecutive session and reaching its highest level since May as escalating hostilities in the Middle East heightened concerns over global supply disruptions. US President Trump warned that the US would hold Iran responsible for any future Houthi attacks on commercial shipping in the Red Sea, threatening Tehran and the Yemen-based militants with "major military punishment." He also said he was "considering a massive attack" against Iran. The comments followed Houthi attacks on two Saudi oil tankers in the Red Sea, which the group said were intended to enforce a newly announced blockade of Saudi ports. Oil prices have now climbed more than 30% from the pre-conflict levels seen earlier this month. Adding to supply concerns, Kazakhstan's decision to suspend crude exports through the Caspian Pipeline Consortium terminal following drone attacks further tightened the market outlook.

Brent Tops $100

Crude oil surged more than 6% to trade above $92 per barrel on Thursday, extending gains for a fifth consecutive session and reaching its highest level since early June as escalating hostilities in the Middle East heightened concerns over global supply disruptions.

Crude Oil Soars

US gasoline futures rose above $3.48 per gallon, near the highest level since the end of May, as the US-Iran conflict escalated to the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, fueling concerns over further disruptions to energy supply. Nearing a second consecutive week of strikes, a new front in the conflict opened in the Red Sea after President Donald Trump said Iran would be held responsible for any further attacks, following claims by Iran-backed Houthi rebels of strikes on two Saudi oil tankers. Tankers have increasingly avoided the Bab el-Mandeb Strait, raising the risk of another disruption to a key global shipping route. Adding to the pressure, earlier Ukrainian strikes on 24 out of 34 largest Russian refineries, and US refineries running at 96.1% of their capacity, further weighed on refined supply outlook. Still, fuel supplies in Russia showed signs of improving after Ukraine shifted attacks away from major oil refineries toward maritime targets.
