The oil glut people were talking about never actually materialized, and prices will almost certainly go through the roof with the main shipping route being closed.

There's a whole bunch of other articles still talking about it, so that's interesting. I might have to look deeper into it.

If the price makers behind the glut are under military siege or have their equipment blown up it's academic, though.
