The world's largest oil exporter, Saudi Arabia, has reportedly begun scaling back production at two of its major oilfields. This move comes as the strategic Strait of Hormuz faces unprecedented blockages resulting from the ongoing conflict between the United States, Israel, and Iran. While the specific fields and the exact volume of the cuts remain undisclosed, the logistical constraints in the region have forced the state-owned giant to reroute crude shipments to the Red Sea port of Yanbu.
