This week on Strait Talk, we’re taking a closer look at the intersection of geopolitics and oil flows. We’ll explore how tensions involving Israel and Lebanon are complicating the prospects of a US–Iran deal, and why that matters for the broader region. We’ll also break down the latest on crude exports from the Middle East Gulf — how much is moving, where it’s going, and what it signals for the global market.

Join Tom Reed, Head of Oil market Analysis,, alongside Dubai-based experts Nader Itayim, Middle East Editor, and Bachar Halabi, Senior News Reporter and John Ollett, Editor - EMEA Freight on this Strait Talk episode.
