Even with a deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, it could take weeks or months for oil to fully flow
A tentative agreement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz, a critical oil shipment route, may take weeks or months to restore full oil flows due to logistical challenges, mine clearance, and cautious ship navigation. Over 500 vessels remain trapped in the Persian Gulf, and Gulf producers need time to resume prewar production levels.
