Iraq, UAE Accelerate Pipeline Plans as Hormuz Exports Falter

|Iraq, Iraq|1 independent sources

Published by WarSignal Editorial · Last updated

Iraq and the United Arab Emirates are racing to build alternative oil pipelines as exports through the Strait of Hormuz have dwindled.

Iraq’s oil ministry announced plans to construct a new pipeline to bypass the congested Hormuz route, while the UAE is also developing a parallel project to secure its crude exports. Both countries aim to reduce reliance on the narrow maritime corridor that has seen a sharp decline in throughput.

The move comes amid growing concerns over supply disruptions in the region, prompting Gulf states to seek more resilient infrastructure for their oil shipments.
