Saudi Aramco Restarts Oil Exports Through Repaired Pipeline

Saudi Arabia has resumed oil exports through its crucial East-West pipeline after repairs following drone strikes earlier this month. The state-run Saudi Aramco had been testing the pipeline and building pressure to resume meaningful flows by the weekend, according to people familiar with the matter.

The cross-country pipeline was damaged in the attacks, which forced a halt in overseas shipments. However, with the recent repairs, exports have now resumed, said a person with direct knowledge of the operation.
