  • Crude Oil Prices Surge Amid Strait of Hormuz Closure and Iran Conflict
    April 2, 2026, 5:25 PM EDT. Crude oil prices soared to a 3.5-week high as the Strait of Hormuz remains closed due to rising tensions in Iran. May WTI crude climbed 11.41%, while May RBOB gasoline rose 6.36% on Thursday. President Trump's pledge to escalate action against Iran without plans to reopen the crucial shipping route has intensified supply concerns. The Strait of Hormuz, a key passage for about 20% of the world's oil, is effectively shut, prompting regional production cuts of roughly 6% due to storage limits. Efforts by Oman and the UAE to monitor or potentially reopen the strait militarily are underway amid infrastructure damage and broadening Middle East instability. The International Energy Agency warns that even an end to the conflict would not quickly restore normal flows, sustaining pressure on global oil markets.
