Brent Hits $110 After Israel Strikes South Pars and Iran Fires on Qatar's LNG Hub
Brent crude pushed above $110 per barrel on March 18 after Israeli and U.S. forces struck Iran's South Pars gas field, the world's largest, for the first time since the war began. Iran retaliated within hours, firing missiles at Qatar's Ras Laffan Industrial City and causing extensive damage to the complex that houses roughly a fifth of global LNG export capacity. Tehran published a list of five additional Gulf energy targets across Saudi Arabia, the UAE, and Qatar, and the IRGC declared them legitimate targets.

Brent Hits $110 After Israel Strikes South Pars and Iran Fires on Qatar's LNG Hub
Brent crude pushed above $110 per barrel on March 18 after Israeli and U.S. forces struck Iran's South Pars gas field, the world's largest, for the first time since the war began. Iran retaliated within hours, firing missiles at Qatar's Ras Laffan Industrial City and causing extensive damage to the complex that houses roughly a fifth of global LNG export capacity.

Brent Reclaims $100 After Iran Strikes Oman's Oil Bypass
Brent crude pushed back above $100 per barrel on March 12 after Iranian drones struck fuel storage tanks at Oman's Port of Salalah, the key alternative route tankers had been using to avoid the closed Strait of Hormuz. The IEA's record 400-million-barrel reserve release, announced the previous day, failed to hold prices below $90. Goldman Sachs responded by more than doubling its Hormuz disruption assumption from 10 to 21 days.
Three Ships Hit in Hormuz as the Largest Oil Reserve Release in History Fails to Hold
Brent crude extended above $97 on March 11 after Iran's IRGC claimed direct attacks on three commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz and declared that no oil would transit the waterway. The IEA's unanimous 400-million-barrel strategic reserve release, the largest in the agency's history, failed to cap the move. JPMorgan analysts noted that emergency releases peak at 1.4 million barrels per day against a 16 million barrel shortfall from the strait closure.
Brent Snaps Back 8% as Iran Escalates and Mines Appear in the Strait
Brent crude rebounded roughly 8% on March 11 after Iran launched what state media called its most intense operation since the war began, three vessels were hit by projectiles near the Strait of Hormuz, and U.S. intelligence reported Iran is now laying mines in the waterway. The bounce erased most of the previous session's 11% crash, which had been driven by Trump's premature de-escalation signals. Even the IEA's announcement of a record 400-million-barrel strategic reserve release failed to cap the move.
A Deleted Tweet From the Energy Secretary Just Unwound Brent's War Premium
Energy Secretary Chris Wright posted on X that the U.S. Navy escorted an oil tanker through the Strait of Hormuz, triggering the sharpest crude selloff since the Iran war began two weeks ago. Brent dropped from nearly $98 to below $80 intraday as the geopolitical risk premium that had built from the mid-$60s unwound in hours. Wright's post was subsequently deleted, and the Energy Department has not clarified the Navy's role.
Diplomatic Deal and Trump's 'War Complete' Comments Drain the Hormuz Premium from Crude
Brent crude gave back a large chunk of its war-driven spike on March 10 after a UN-brokered Memorandum of Maritime Stability committed regional powers to keeping Strait of Hormuz shipping lanes open. President Trump reinforced the reversal by telling CBS the Iran campaign was very complete and running ahead of schedule. The combination triggered algorithmic selling that dragged Brent from near $120 to the low $80s in under 48 hours, unwinding much of the geopolitical risk premium that had built up since late February.
Brent Crude Reverses $31 After Trump Floats U.S. Takeover of the Strait of Hormuz
Brent crude spiked to $119.50 as the Iran war shut down tanker traffic through the Strait of Hormuz, then reversed $31 in a single session after President Trump told CBS News he was considering taking over the waterway and declared the conflict essentially over. BRENTOIL on Hyperliquid fell 14.64% as traders liquidated the supply-disruption premium that had pushed crude from $60 to $120 in a matter of days.
Brent Crashes From $119 After Trump Signals Ceasefire and G7 Floats Record Reserve Release
Brent crude gave back its entire war-premium spike in a single session, falling from $119.50 to below $91 after President Trump said the Iran conflict would end very soon and G7 leaders confirmed strategic petroleum reserves were on the table. The 20% intraday reversal produced a $30 round-trip in under 24 hours, one of the largest single-session oil swings in decades.
Brent Crude Gives Back Entire Hormuz War Premium on Trump Resolution Signals
BRENTOIL dropped 24% in under a day as the market rapidly unwound the war premium that sent crude from $70 to nearly $120 in ten days. Trump's declaration that the Iran operation was very complete, combined with G7 discussions on strategic reserve releases, triggered the sharpest single-session reversal in oil since the 2022 Russia spike. At $86.75, Brent has retraced most of the Strait of Hormuz closure panic — but the strait itself remains closed to commercial traffic.
BRENTOIL Gives Back the War Premium After Trump Signals Iran Conflict Nearing End
Brent crude reversed from a $119 spike to below $90 in a single session after Trump declared the Iran war will end very soon and G7 energy ministers convened to discuss a coordinated release of strategic petroleum reserves. The war premium that took ten days to build unwound in hours as the market repriced the conflict timeline.
Brent Pulls Back 20% From Spike as Trump Signals Iran War Winding Down
Brent crude retreated from near $120 to the low $90s after President Trump told CBS News the Iran conflict is "very complete, pretty much" and floated the idea of seizing the Strait of Hormuz. The pullback accelerated as G7 finance ministers convened to discuss a coordinated release of up to 400 million barrels from strategic reserves. The Strait remains effectively closed, Iraqi output has collapsed 60%, and the G7 has not yet agreed to act — but the market heard what it wanted to hear.
Brent Sheds War Premium After Trump Signals Iran Operation Near Completion
Brent crude dropped more than 21% in 16 hours on Hyperliquid's BRENTOIL perp, unwinding the geopolitical risk premium that built up during the Strait of Hormuz crisis. The selloff accelerated after President Trump told CBS the military operation against Iran was very complete and ahead of schedule, while G7 leaders confirmed strategic petroleum reserve releases were under active discussion.
Brent Crude Rips 10% as Strait of Hormuz Grinds to a Halt
Brent crude tore nearly 10% higher over the past 20 hours, pushing past $91 a barrel on Hyperliquid as the U.S.-Iran military conflict choked off traffic through the Strait of Hormuz. The strait handles roughly one-fifth of the world's oil supply, and daily vessel traffic has collapsed from 138 ships to single digits, triggering the sharpest supply shock since the 2020 pandemic demand crash.
