Saudi Arabia restores East-West pipeline, Manifa output after Hormuz disruption Saudi Arabia said it has restored full oil pumping capacity through its East-West pipeline to about 7 million barrels per day, days after attacks during the Iran conflict disrupted energy infrastructure. The energy ministry said affected facilities and the pipeline have now recovered and resumed operations.
The ministry also said that output from the Manifa field, previously reduced by about 300,000 barrels per day, has been restored while work continues to return the Khurais field to full capacity. It said the rapid recovery reflects successful operational efforts and will support the “reliability and continuity” of energy supplies to global markets.
