Saudi Oil Pipeline to Resume Operations 'Soon' After Attack

A critical Saudi oil pipeline is expected to resume operations soon after being closed due to damage from an attack last week. Energy Secretary Chris Wright stated that the assessment of the damage and necessary repairs are ongoing, with more clarity on the timeline anticipated in the near future.

The East-West pipeline pumping station in Saudi Arabia was damaged in the September 13 attack, causing a shutdown. Wright emphasized that the pipeline will be back online 'soon' but provided no specific date for the restart.
