Reuters, citing three sources familiar with the matter, said: Saudi Arabia has told its European customers that some crude shipments scheduled for late September will be canceled. The world's largest crude exporter shut down its East-West pipeline last week after an attack on it and is now facing the challenge of Yemeni attacks in the Red Sea and ongoing disruptions to shipping in the Strait of Hormuz. @iribnews

LONDON, Sept 15 (Reuters) - Oil loadings at Saudi Arabia's Red Sea port of Yanbu have been suspended, days after the world's biggest crude exporter closed its East-West pipeline due to an attack by Yemen's Iran-aligned Houthis, shipping industry sources said on Tuesday.

@Farsna [in reply to: Saudi megaproject shattered New satellite images show that recent Yemeni attacks on Saudi oil infrastructure have spread to several points along the East-West pipeline, knocking out pumping stations on this 7-million-barrel artery. The images show traces of burns near the Hanakiya route and other points in Medina province. According to the latest report from the International Energy Agency, Saudi oil supply in August was 6 million barrels per day, 2.3 million barrels less than the previous month and the lowest level in more than 30 years. Last year it reached; this number is expected to be halved this month.

Pipeline repairs could take weeks; Saudi Arabia fears disruption to oil supply.
Saudi Arabia's pipeline will not be operational for a month With the loss of the possibility of exporting oil through the East-West pipeline for a period of 3 to 5 weeks, Riyadh's tactical escape route from the Strait of Hormuz has been blocked. Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline will be out of service for at least three to five weeks following drone attacks on its pumping stations. The multi-week shutdown has blocked Riyadh's alternative crude oil export artery and severely restricted the country's energy transit. According to initial engineering assessments and statements from Saudi officials, the extent of the damage to technical equipment and pumping stations is such that the process of assessing, procuring parts, and safely rebuilding the infrastructure will take a long time, at least a month. dnws.ir/003cLe @defapress_world

Saudi Arabia's damaged oil pipeline won't be operational anytime soon A vital Saudi oil pipeline that was attacked last week will not be able to operate despite repair efforts. Repairing the damage, including to a key pumping facility, could take three to five weeks, officials said. The East-West pipeline, which runs across Saudi Arabia, is crucial to Saudi Arabia's strategy to move its oil exports to the Red Sea. The 1,200-kilometer (745-mile) pipeline can carry up to 7 million barrels of oil per day. One official said the pipeline may operate partially while repairs are carried out.

A crucial Saudi oil pipeline hit in strikes will be mostly out of service for several weeks for repairs, officials say
Satellite images show serious damage to Saudi oil transfer station The closure of the 1,200-kilometer east-west pipeline due to a drone attack has reduced Saudi Arabia's oil reserves on the Red Sea coast to a minimum and put the global market on the verge of a 4% drop in oil supply. Saudi Arabia, one of the world's largest oil exporters, is on the verge of an unprecedented crisis. According to oil buyers and traders, if Saudi Arabia fails to reopen its strategic "east-west" pipeline to the Red Sea, which was severely damaged in a drone attack on Friday, its oil reserves for export will be completely exhausted within the next few days. This sudden exit from the oil market will result in the removal of about 4 million barrels of oil per day, equivalent to 4 percent of total global supply, and will exacerbate the shortage in international markets. dnws.ir/003cHL @defapress_world

Saudi Arabia could run out of oil for export if the East-West pipeline in the Red Sea is not resumed in the coming days. This could lead to a significant reduction in oil supplies on the global market, Reuters reports, citing buyers of Saudi oil and traders. The pipeline was suspended after drone attacks. Saudi Arabian authorities have not yet disclosed the extent of the damage or a timeline for its restoration. RBC app for iOS and Android

FWD from Mehr International: How will the disruption to Saudi Arabia's oil pipeline affect global supply? Saudi Arabia's east-west pipeline, which was shut down on Friday after drone attacks, transported about 4 million barrels of oil a day to the Red Sea port of Yanbu and had helped Saudi Arabia weather the consequences of disruptions in the Strait of Hormuz and reduced exports from regional countries for the past six months. Informed sources told Reuters that repairs could take five to six weeks and that the disruption to the Saudi oil pipeline could take 4 percent of global supply off the market. mehrnews.com/x3d3Z7 @MehrnewsIntl
American media citing Saudi sources: Repairs to the East-West pipeline in Saudi Arabia may take more than 6 weeks, and Yanbu has enough stock to last 5-7 days to maintain oil exports.
Reuters, citing sources: If Saudi Arabia does not restart its main oil pipeline to the Red Sea within a few days, its oil reserves for export will run out; as a result, up to 4% of global supply could be removed from the market It may take five to six weeks to repair this pipeline / Selection
SAUDI PIPELINE OUTAGE THREATENS 4% OF GLOBAL OIL SUPPLY • • Saudi Arabia could lose up to 4 million barrels per day of exports — roughly 4% of global supply — if its critical East-West pipeline does not restart within days, Reuters reports. • • Saudi storage at Yanbu can sustain exports for only 5-7 days, according to sources. With repair estimates potentially stretching to 5-6 weeks, a prolonged outage risks deepening the global oil crunch and adding further pressure to inflation and bond yields.

How did this market resolve?
On September 11, 2026, Saudi Arabia's Ministry of Energy announced that the East-West oil pipeline has been shut down.
This market will resolve to “Yes” if the government of Saudi Arabia announces that the East-West oil pipeline is operational or no longer shut down between market creation and the specified date, 11:59 PM ET. Otherwise, this market will resolve to “No”.
A qualifying announcement must express that the pipeline is presently operating; operation at partial or reduced capacity qualifies.
Announcements that attribute such a claim to third parties, state that the pipeline will or may operate in the future, describe work underway to restore operation, or frame resumption as expected, planned, or conditional, will not qualify.
Once a qualifying announcement is made, this market will resolve to “Yes,” regardless of any subsequent contradictory statements, or alternative information from other sources.
The resolution source for this market will be official information from the government of Saudi Arabia.
