Oil and fuel prices have surged due to the Middle East conflict and attacks on Russian refineries, leading to supply disruptions and increased maritime transport costs. The International Energy Agency (IEA) warns that these issues may persist until 2027, with potential further price hikes. Despite a rise in global oil production, diesel exports remain significantly below pre-war levels, exacerbating shortages. The IEA reports that global diesel prices have nearly doubled since the conflict began, impacting economic conditions. Additionally, global oil reserves have decreased by over 500 million barrels, raising concerns for the upcoming winter season. The G7 has initiated the release of strategic reserves to alleviate supply challenges.
