Khaberni - The Financial Times reported, citing Qatari Energy Minister Saad al-Kaabi, that if the current war consequences persist, oil prices might rise to $150 per barrel within two to three weeks.
The minister warned that the war might force Gulf countries to stop energy exports within weeks, potentially leading to major disruptions in global energy markets.
Al-Kaabi also predicted that natural gas prices might rise to around $40 per million British thermal units amid the current tensions.
He noted that even if the war ends immediately, Qatar's return to the normal supply cycle could take from weeks to months.
