West Texas Intermediate rose more than $5 a barrel to settle near $115 on Wednesday, March 22, 2022. The rally followed news that a major Black Sea oil export terminal had halted loadings and faced weeks of disruption, with exports possibly cut by about 1 million barrels a day.
Reports of shrinking U.S. stockpiles also supported prices.
A prolonged loss of Black Sea export capacity tightens global crude supply and raises the cost of fuel and freight used across the feed chain. The stockpile draw reinforces the tightness, so the price implication is bullish for crude.
