Oil climbs as Iran attacks hit energy fields; Jones Act waiver aims to ease fuel shipments
TL;DR Summary
Oil prices rose after Iran said U.S. and Israeli strikes hit a key natural gas field and the Trump administration granted a 60-day Jones Act waiver to allow foreign ships to carry fuel to U.S. ports; Brent traded near $110 a barrel and WTI around $98, with analysts noting the waiver is unlikely to have an immediate impact and ongoing Gulf tensions keep supply risks elevated.
