US and Iran hold technical talks on peace deal

The United States and Iran have held technical talks in Doha as part of efforts to secure a wider peace deal and restart shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. According to Reuters, the two sides focused on maritime traffic, frozen Iranian assets, and other issues linked to an interim agreement reached earlier. Sources said the talks lasted two days and did not address Iran’s nuclear programme, which is expected to be handled in later discussions. Reuters reported that the initial deal would allow shipping to resume through the Strait of Hormuz, a major route for global oil and gas trade. The discussions were described as technical, with officials saying they built on earlier progress but did not produce a final settlement.

Iran FM warns any challenge to Hormuz routes will increase tensions

Iran’s foreign minister Abbas Araghchi has warned that any attempt to challenge or bypass the shipping routes for the Strait of Hormuz agreed with the United States will “increase tensions” in the Middle East. Speaking during a visit to Baghdad, he said responsibility for managing traffic through the strategic waterway “rests solely” with Iran and that parallel arrangements by other countries would complicate efforts to restore stability.nampa+2 Araghchi argued that attempts to set up separate security frameworks or convoy systems outside the existing US–Iran memorandum of understanding would delay the full reopening of the strait and risk further escalation, as seen in recent nights of missile and drone exchanges. He urged Gulf states and Western powers to focus on implementing the MoU rather than pushing new plans that challenge Tehran’s control over Hormuz.news.yahoo+2 The warning comes after fresh tit-for-tat strikes […]

Oil back to pre-war levels as Hormuz traffic rebounds

Oil prices have fallen back to pre-war levels as shipping through the Strait of Hormuz continues to recover.

He added that roughly 20 million barrels passed through the strait in the previous 24 hours, suggesting a strong recovery in maritime traffic. At the same time, US officials are trying to reassure Gulf allies worried about Washington’s preliminary deal with Iran.

Crude Oil Imports Hit Record High as Dangote Refinery Reshapes Nigeria’s Trade Flow

Nigeria’s crude oil imports surged by 26.5% in the first half of 2025, reaching 5,665,602 metric tons, compared to 4,478,413 metric tons in the same period of 2024, according to fresh data from the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA). The rise has been largely attributed to the 650,000 barrels per day Dangote Petroleum Refinery, which has been sourcing crude oil from countries including the United States, Brazil, Angola, and Equatorial Guinea.

Q2 2025: Imports spiked to 3,265,099 MT, a 126% increase compared to Q2 2024 (1,441,204 MT). The Dangote Refinery, which began refining diesel and aviation fuel in January 2024, has since become a key player in both domestic and global energy trade, exporting petroleum products while importing crude […]
