Update(0803ET) : This development certainly isn't going to help global oil prices stay down... Following a drone attack out of Ukraine days ago on the Caspian ​Pipeline Consortium (CPC) terminal along the Black Sea Coast, Kazakhstan has newly confirmed a halt crude transfers there. The Kremlin charged that these recent attacks are part of Ukraine's "ambition ​to further destabilize the situation on global oil markets". Flows had initially resumed after a wave of Sunday attacks on the CPC terminal, but were halted again after strike on tanker Nelsa. For example a key section of Caspian Pipeline Consortium near Novorossiysk was temporarily been taken offline in a November 2025 attack.
