Crude oil exports from Gulf countries surged in June, exceeding 10 million barrels per day, according to data analyzed by Reuters. This increase was largely driven by the United Arab Emirates, whose shipments reached a record high.
Emirati exports have surged to around 3,8 million barrels per day, an unprecedented volume. This performance has been a decisive factor in increasing oil flows throughout the region, as maritime traffic gradually returns to normal after several months of disruption.
The recovery is largely due to increased oil tanker traffic, which has helped to make up for some of the lost ground in exports following the tensions and conflict that affected the Gulf in recent months. Port and logistics operations are gradually returning to normal.
Despite this marked improvement, Gulf oil exports remain approximately 40% lower than pre-conflict levels. Energy infrastructure and shipping routes continue to operate cautiously, as some restrictions and uncertainties persist.
This rebound in exports comes amid a gradual stabilization of the region, following the agreements that led to a ceasefire. Markets are closely monitoring the evolution of oil flows from the Gulf, which play a central role in global energy supply and directly influence crude oil prices.
