Saudi Arabia restores key oil pipeline

The restoration of the pipeline provides a vital alternative route for Saudi crude exports, bypassing the increasingly dangerous Strait of Hormuz.

Pumping to the Yanbu port on the Red Sea will help stabilize global oil supplies as maritime traffic remains restricted in the Persian Gulf.

This development comes as international energy markets face extreme volatility following the collapse of peace talks in Pakistan.

Saudi officials emphasized that the rehabilitation of the infrastructure is essential for maintaining regional energy security and Vision 2030 goals.
