Oman’s energy minister: The Strait of Hormuz will remain open, but perhaps only for a short period; diversification of export routes is necessary

1. The Omani Minister of Energy stated that the Strait of Hormuz will remain open, but this may only be a short-term situation. 2. He also pointed out that Oman can still continue producing oil and gas, which is reassuring. The current surge in oil and liquefied natural gas prices is unsustainable for all parties. 3. He believes that the situation should stabilize in the medium term. To achieve this, it is necessary to promote the diversification of export routes and identify alternative export solutions, whether through Oman or Yemen.
