Oil prices have fallen as hopes rise for normalizing vessel traffic through the Strait of Hormuz.

The price of Brent crude oil futures on the London ICE Futures exchange dropped by 0.56% to $87.35 per barrel, while WTI crude decreased by 0.56% to $81.77 per barrel on the New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX).

The Strait of Hormuz is a critical waterway for global oil trade, and any disruptions can have significant impacts on prices.

In related news, Iran and Oman announced an agreement on August 26 to share revenues from securing shipping in the Strait of Hormuz with representatives from the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC).
