This week, global oil prices rose to their highest levels since 2022 following an escalation of the US-Israel war with Iran. Brent crude, the international benchmark, surged past the $100 mark before dipping below that psychological threshold. Liquid Natural Gas (LNG) prices have also seen a 50% increase since the US and Israel attacked Iran. The war has effectively closed the Strait of Hormuz which sees over a fifth of the global oil and LNG trade pass through narrow gulf.
