Oil prices have surged above $106 per barrel amid escalating tensions between the U.S. and Iran in the Strait of Hormuz, following the capture of commercial vessels by both nations.

The Iran war has led to a significant increase in U.S. oil and gas exports, with exports doubling and, in some regions, tripling, positioning the U.S. as the world's dominant emergency supplier.
