ADNOC CEO links energy crisis to Strait of Hormuz closures at ADIPEC
What happened
The Abu Dhabi International Petroleum Exhibition and Conference (ADIPEC) opened in Doha on Monday. During the opening remarks, the Managing Director and Group CEO of Abu Dhabi National Oil Company stated that the world’s current energy crisis was caused by the US-Israeli war on Iran in February. The CEO cited the closure of free movement through the Strait of Hormuz, which led to one billion barrels of crude oil being drained from global inventories.

Why it matters
The CEO noted that diesel stocks had fallen to their lowest seasonal levels in 35 years, causing wholesale prices in the US and Europe to reach historic highs of around $220 per barrel. He also highlighted a loss of 600 billion cubic feet of liquefied natural gas supply.
