Iraq crude output hits 4.6M bpd, highest since 2019; Hormuz flows surge

Iraq's October crude production reached 4.6 million bpd, up 540,000 bpd from September, the highest since 2019, per IEA data. Kuwait and Saudi Arabia also raised output, with increased volumes transiting the Strait of Hormuz via smaller tankers transferring to supertankers in the Gulf of Oman. This supply increase, if sustained, could pressure oil prices and offset geopolitical risk premiums.
