Saudi, UAE, Iraq: Can three pipelines help oil escape Strait of Hormuz?

With the Strait of Hormuz mostly closed due to conflict, Middle Eastern countries are trying to use pipelines to export oil. Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline can move up to 7 million barrels per day, the UAE's pipeline about 1.5 million, and Iraq's to Turkey about 1.6 million. But together, they can't fully replace the Strait, which handled about 20 million barrels daily. These pipelines are also at risk of attack in the ongoing war. https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2026/3/27/saudi-uae-iraq-can-three-pipelines-help-oil-escape-strait-of-hormuz
