  • Crude Oil Prices Drop Sharply as Persian Gulf Supply Recovers and OPEC Tensions Rise
    June 29, 2026, 1:01 PM EDT. Crude oil prices fell sharply on Friday, with August WTI crude down 3.74% to a four-month low amid accelerated tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz boosting global supply. Persian Gulf crude exports climbed to at least 75% of pre-war levels, adding pressure on prices. Saudi Arabia's move to resume exports from Ras Tanura and Iraq's threat to quit OPEC over output quotas also weighed on the market. The International Energy Agency cut demand forecasts, while Goldman Sachs lowered Brent crude price outlook for Q4 to $80 a barrel. U.S. crude production estimates were raised by the Department of Energy. Offsetting some downside, Ukrainian drone attacks have disrupted Russian oil infrastructure, limiting Russian crude-processing rates to a 20-year low.
