The US Has Taken Over the Strait of Hormuz and Now Exports More Oil Than Before the Conflict

The US Has Taken Over the Strait of Hormuz and Now Exports More Iranian Oil Than Before the Conflict.

Secretary Chris Write shared on Tuesday:

Thanks to the coordinated efforts of the U.S. military and our gulf allies, the seven-day average for oil leaving the Strait of Hormuz is currently up to almost 9 million barrels per day.
When combined with the additional 5-7 million barrels per day leaving the region via newly upgraded pipelines and export facilities, total oil flows are currently averaging approximately 15 million barrels per day.
On Sunday alone, over 20 million barrels left the Arabian gulf region, which is above the pre-conflict average.

President Trump is destroying Iran with almost no casualties while increasing the amount of oil out of the regime.

🚨 TRUMP IS WINNING THE STRAIT OF HORMUZ

Iran claims no ship can pass without their permission.

Reality:

Oil flowing out of the Gulf is now higher than before the conflict.

U.S. Navy is running escorts.

Pipelines in the UAE and Saudi Arabia are expanding fast.

American energy exports are at record levels.

Iran played its last leverage card too soon… and it’s not working.

The “line of steel” is holding.

Iran is claiming that they have absolute control over the strait. Somebody's spreading propaganda.

We get less than 2% of our petroleum products through there, we should have mined it and left it 3 months ago.
Big oil is loving it though.

In the last 30 days (approximately mid-July to mid-August 2026), the United States has exported 1.9 million barrels per day of distillate fuel (predominantly diesel) to a record high, while gasoline exports have remained robust but at lower volumes, with total refined product exports averaging over 7.6 million barrels per day.

We're exporting around 1/4 of what we would use domestically everyday.
