UAE to accelerate construction of new oil pipeline bypassing the Strait of Hormuz

The United Arab Emirates will accelerate the construction of a new oil pipeline that will allow for an increase in oil exports, bypassing the Strait of Hormuz. The project is expected to become operational as early as 2027, writes Reuters.

The Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, Khalid bin Mohammed Al Nahyan, gave the corresponding instruction to the state oil company ADNOC. The new "West-East" pipeline is currently under construction.

The project is intended to become an additional alternative to the Strait of Hormuz, which Iran effectively blocked after the start of American-Israeli strikes in late February of this year. A significant portion of global oil supplies passes through this strait.

Currently, the UAE already operates the Habshan-Fujairah oil pipeline, which can pump up to 1.8 million barrels of oil per day. It allows for oil exports via the coast of the Gulf of Oman, without using the Strait of Hormuz.

Saudi Arabia also has its own route bypassing the strait — the "East-West" pipeline, built back in the 1980s during the Iran-Iraq war. Approximately 7 million barrels of oil are transported through it daily, and the country's authorities are considering the possibility of expanding its capacity.

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz particularly affects Gulf countries such as Kuwait, Iraq, Qatar, and Bahrain, which heavily rely on this sea lane for oil exports.
