The escalation of the conflict in the Middle East has once again shaken the oil markets. Israel has launched Operation 'Rising Lion' against Iranian nuclear infrastructure, which has already caused oil prices to rise. However, analysts warn: if Iran completely loses its ability to export oil in the event of further escalation, prices could soar to levels not seen since 2022.
According to JP Morgan experts, in the event of a 'worst-case scenario', a barrel could rise to $120. Such a blow to Iranian supplies could trigger serious upheaval in the global energy market.
