Middle East oil producers have reduced output by more than 11 million barrels per day as the Strait of Hormuz remains blocked. The cut is documented in figures released by the U.S. Energy Information Administration.

Production and shipping data The agency tracks daily output levels across the region and records changes tied to shipping routes. The same data set shows the volume of oil that normally moves through the strait and the current reduction in that flow.

Market context Lower volumes reaching export terminals have narrowed available supply for buyers outside the region. The U.S. Energy Information Administration continues to publish updated figures as conditions in the strait persist.
