Oil prices rose today with projections suggesting prices could reach between $150 and $180 per barrel. Fuel prices are expected to range between 80 and 90 dollars per barrel, potentially reaching 150 dollars. Fuel represents 20% to 25% of airline operating costs, and up to 40% in some cases.

Press reports indicate a potential long-term blockade of Iran is being prepared to force concessions on its nuclear program, which is expected to impact oil markets. The United States has added five entities, including Chinese refineries and logistics companies, to its sanctions list to prevent Iran from collecting transit fees in the Strait of Hormuz. The Iranian central bank has reportedly set up a special account to collect these fees in rials, dollars, and euros. She urged European countries to reduce dependence on fossil fuels.
