Brent fell $3.34 to settle at $73.74 a barrel on 24 June after an intraday low of $73.12, its weakest since 27 February, and WTI settled at $70.34 after dipping below $70 for the first time since 2 March, Reuters reported. Shipping data showed about 20 million barrels leaving Hormuz in 24 hours, and US Energy Secretary Chris Wright said flows were 'similar to what they were before the start of the Iran war'. Bloomberg reported that the IEA estimated UAE exports at near 85% of pre-war levels and that the IMO had safety guarantees for 'hundreds' of ships to leave the Gulf.
