The International Energy Agency announced that its member countries have so far released approximately 325 million barrels of oil from emergency reserves, representing over 80% of the 400 million barrels pledged to counter supply disruptions caused by the war in the Middle East. This marks the largest coordinated drawdown from oil reserves in the agency's history, coinciding with increasing pressures on energy markets, particularly in the diesel sector, due to disruptions across the Strait of Hormuz and attacks on Russian refineries in Ukraine. The G7 also announced an additional draw of 100 million barrels from reserves aimed at alleviating market pressures, with coordinated maintenance operations and measures to prevent export restrictions. An assessment of the impact is expected within 20 days.
