OIL PRICES CLIMB AMID IRAQI SUPPLY DISRUPTIONS AND STRONG SUMMER DEMAND.

A surge in oil prices continues as drone attacks severely disrupt production in Iraq's semi-autonomous Kurdistan region, halving the area's oil output and heightening global supply concerns. This supply shock comes amid an already tight market supported by strong seasonal demand in the U.S. and Asia, with global oil consumption averaging over 105 million barrels per day this July. Analysts note that despite increased output from OPEC+ members and looming uncertainties around U.S. tariff policies, near-term fundamentals remain bullish—further reinforced by a notable drawdown in U.S. crude inventories and the return of Asian refineries from maintenance. While officials suspect Iran-backed militias behind the attacks, no group has claimed responsibility. As geopolitical risks mount and infrastructure remains vulnerable, investors are bracing for continued price volatility in the oil market through the remainder of the quarter.
