Saudi Arabia restarts East-West pipeline, may resume Yanbu oil exports
Saudi Arabia has restarted its East-West pipeline and may resume oil exports from Yanbu. Supplies returned on Tuesday, which drove selling on global oil markets. Brent crude, the global benchmark, fell more than $2 a barrel to about $97, its lowest since September 8. Softer crude prices often ease fuel and freight costs here, so keep this in mind before locking in big purchase or transport contracts.
