US Oil Extraction Claim from Strait of Hormuz Questioned

A recent claim asserting that the United States extracted 100 million barrels of oil from the Strait of Hormuz has encountered questions regarding its accuracy. Analysis indicates that the mathematical underpinnings of this specific claim do not appear to be robust.

Despite the lack of support for the 100-million-barrel figure, it has been suggested that the U.S. has likely managed to move a quantity of oil out of the strait. The precise volume of oil that the U.S. has successfully transported remains unspecified in relation to this claim.

According to Al Jazeera, the mathematics for the larger claim does not appear to hold up, even though the US has likely managed to get some oil out of the strait.
