Venezuela's oil exports fell sharply in July after Middle East crude trapped in the Persian Gulf re-entered the market following a pause in the Iran war, while demand from India weakened. According to shipping reports, Kpler data, and media tracking of vessel activity, Venezuela's crude loadings dropped to 856,000 barrels per day last month, the lowest level in five months and 25% below June. Exports to India were cut in half. The report said that as the Iran conflict moved into its sixth month, supply-chain adjustments and the use of alternative shipping routes eased the initial disruption to global energy flows. It also noted that oil prices fell after U.S. President Donald Trump canceled plans on Monday for an attack on Iran in an effort to keep peace talks going. The United States and India remained the largest buyers of Venezuelan crude.
