Energy consultant FGE NexantECA says a US maritime blockade has cut Iranian oil exports to near zero and a near-term US‑Iran agreement to end hostilities is unlikely.

He said the situation is not only far from a solution but worse than before the June memorandum of understanding that briefly reopened the Strait of Hormuz. Fesharaki warned the probability of renewed military strikes on Iran is high because Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu have limited time to act.
