Saudi Aramco claims suspended oil production would come online by Sept end
New Delhi: In what may provide a relief to the global energy markets, Saudi Arabian Oil Co., or Saudi Aramco has said that the suspended production capacity would come online by end of the month.
The drone attacks have caused the biggest-ever disruption in global crude oil supplies and has further escalated tensions in the Persian Gulf. Even as Yemen’s Houthi rebels have claimed responsibility for the audacious attacks, the US has blamed Iran.
“Saudi Aramco President & CEO Amin Nasser said Tuesday that the Company’s production capacity, suspended earlier due to terror attacks on its plants at Abqaiq and Khurais, would be fully restored by the end of September,” the world’s largest oil producer said in the first detailed statement after the attack.
