In a development boosting global oil flows, Saudi Aramco has resumed crude oil loading at the Ras Tanura terminal, according to Reuters reports. The resumption ends a period of halted or reduced operations at the facility, likely due to maintenance, thereby increasing available supply and exerting downward pressure on crude prices.
Ras Tanura is one of the world's largest oil export terminals, making its full return a key factor for supply stability. Aramco's stock (2222.SR) closed at SAR 26.14 on June 25, 2026, per market data. Meanwhile, U.S. crude oil inventories recorded a weekly draw of 0.765 million barrels, according to the American Petroleum Institute, a smaller decline than expected.
