  • Crude Oil Prices Surge as Strait of Hormuz Closure Disrupts Supplies
    April 9, 2026, 5:26 PM EDT. Crude oil prices surged 3.66% on Thursday due to the ongoing closure of the Strait of Hormuz, a critical shipping lane that normally handles about 20% of the world's oil supply. The blockade restricts Gulf crude flows, causing global supply concerns. Iranian drone and missile attacks have disabled over 600,000 barrels per day (bpd) of Saudi production, further tightening supply. Despite hopes for de-escalation with Israel and Lebanon talks, tensions remain high as the US maintains a military presence and Iran enforces strict transit rules for vessels in the strait. Saudi Aramco also raised oil prices to Asia by $17 a barrel, reflecting tight markets. OPEC+'s planned May production increase faces uncertainty amid the conflict. Over 1,800 vessels are currently waiting to transit, underscoring ongoing disruptions to global energy logistics.
