Hormuz oil exports fall 42% below prewar levels

Hormuz oil exports averaged 9.9 million barrels per day over seven days as of October 7, 42% below prewar levels and down from about 15.5 million in September, Kpler data cited by the Financial Times showed. Kpler attributed the decline to intensified vessel attacks; analyst Rory Johnston said flows had fallen 3–4 million barrels per day after peaking at 16.2 million on September 24.
