Heavy crude prices surge amid Iran conflict, impacting global oil supply and fuel costs. Mars sour crude from the U.S. Gulf of Mexico hits a five-year high, with Brent crude also reaching its highest levels since January 2025. Refiners worldwide scramble for barrels, leading to increased fuel prices. Iraq threatens to cut output by over three million barrels per day, driving buyers to alternatives like Canadian heavy oil. Analysts predict lighter crudes to follow suit as Middle East tensions persist, with U.S. political leaders facing pressure over rising pump prices ahead of midterm elections.
