Prices surged 40%+ YTD on Middle East supply risks (Hormuz attacks, Iran-US talks), overriding demand weakness (IEA: -80 kb/d contraction). Expert consensus (EIA, banks) sees persistent $70+ floor from cuts/non-OPEC declines; no authoritative source forecasts sub-$50 in 2026. Bearish pre-disruption views ($50s) revised up; recent updates (Apr EIA/GS) reinforce higher path. No movement toward Yes resolution observed.

Both Russia and Ukraine agreed to a temporary truce for Orthodox Easter, starting April 11, as proposed by Zelenskyy and accepted after Putin's order. Kyiv seeks a full ceasefire as a step to negotiations, but Russia insists on permanent peace terms. Skepticism persists due to past violations of short truces.

Jeremy: Will the Strait of Hormuz reopen to all LNG traffic before May 2026? The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz to all LNG traffic before May 2026 is deemed unlikely given the current geopolitical tensions, particularly between the US, Israel, and Iran. These tensions have resulted in only partial resumption of shipping under a temporary ceasefire. Although infrastructure repairs are near completion, the probability hinges largely on uncertain diplomatic agreements and Iran agreeing to international maritime terms, both seen as unlikely given the short remaining timeframe.

Phil: Will the Strait of Hormuz reopen to all LNG traffic before May 2026? The path to a “Yes” resolution requires a rapid and complete reversal of the current situation. This would involve a successful diplomatic agreement leading to the removal of all Iranian-imposed restrictions, the immediate restoration of trust among international shippers, and the logistical capacity to clear a significant portion of the LNG carrier backlog—all within 22 days. The available evidence, from on-the-ground traffic data to expert industry timelines, overwhelmingly suggests this is not feasible.
