The current price of oil is now $105 per barrel, as reported by Gazeta Express on March 16th, 2026, at 9:01. Unrefined Brent crude oil has approached this level, showing a significant surge exceeding 40 percent since the commencement of the conflict with Iran. Associated Press data indicates a recent rise of 1.6 percent, bringing the Brent price to $104.73 per barrel.
Simultaneously, the cost of U.S. unrefined oil has climbed by 1 percent, reaching $99.68 per barrel. This represents a substantial increase, nearly 50 percent, dating back to the start of the ongoing dispute.
Rystad Energy’s analysis reveals a critical situation. Within just under a week following the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, over 12 million barrels of oil have been effectively removed from global circulation daily. This disruption is directly impacting the market and contributing to the elevated price per barrel.
