What happened, for context

Saudi Arabia's crude oil production fell to 6.238 million barrels per day in August 2026, its lowest level since 1990, according to OPEC reporting. The decline was attributed to disruptions from the US-Iran war affecting export routes through the Strait of Hormuz and Red Sea, with Houthi maritime actions complicating the latter corridor. Oil prices surged above $100 per barrel in response.
