Saudi Arabia has temporarily shut down its critical East-West oil pipeline after drone attacks, raising fresh concerns over global oil supplies as Iran-backed Houthis tighten their grip on the Red Sea and the strategic Bab el-Mandeb Strait.
The 1,200-km Saudi pipeline has become especially important because it provides an alternative route for Saudi crude when shipping through the Strait of Hormuz is disrupted. Reuters reports that the pipeline had been moving around 4–5 million barrels of oil per day, equivalent to roughly 4–5% of global supply.
At the same time, Houthi forces have advanced along Yemen's Red Sea coast and captured Perim (Mayun) Island, a strategically located island at the entrance of the Bab el-Mandeb Strait. The development raises concerns over international shipping, Saudi oil exports and the security of one of the world's key maritime chokepoints.
The crisis comes as oil prices move above $100 per barrel, increasing concerns about energy security, inflation and the wider global economic impact of the Middle East conflict.
In this video, we explain the Saudi oil pipeline attack, Houthi expansion in Yemen, the strategic importance of Bab el-Mandeb, the Strait of Hormuz connection, Iran's role, Saudi Arabia's request for US military assistance, and what the escalation could mean for global oil prices and shipping.
Watch the full analysis to understand why the Red Sea and Gulf energy routes are becoming increasingly important in the global geopolitical and energy crisis.
