The Saudi Ministry of Energy has announced the complete restoration of the East-West oil pipeline's capacity, now operating at a full throughput of 7 million barrels per day. This pipeline plays a critical role in the Kingdom's infrastructure, allowing for the efficient transport of crude oil from the Eastern regions to the Western coasts.

Additionally, the ministry confirmed that production from the Manifa oil field has been stabilized at 300,000 barrels per day. This development comes amid ongoing environmental and geopolitical considerations in the energy sector, particularly in light of the recent conflicts in the Middle East that impact global oil supply dynamics.
