Middle East Oil Exports Climbed Higher Than Before the War

Middle East shipments of unrefined oil rose above pre-war levels on four days in late September, tracking data from Kpler released Oct. 5 show. Exports hit 19.5-22.5 million barrels daily on Sept. 24 and 27-29, up from an 18 million average before the war. The numbers can change, so it is too soon to know if the increase will hold.
