Saudi Arabia will store crude oil at Singapore's Jurong Rock Caverns starting in the second half of 2027 to bolster regional energy security. The agreement follows supply disruptions in Asia caused by conflict between the United States and Israel against Iran in the Strait of Hormuz. Asian economies imported two-thirds of their oil from the Middle East prior to the conflict, leaving reserves depleted.
