The "Reuters" agency reported on Thursday evening that the Dutch company "Vitol" purchased at least 25 million barrels of Iraqi crude oil during September, according to sources it cited.

The agency noted that "Vitol," the largest oil trading company in the world, is leveraging its strength in global shipping and logistics to help Iraq export oil, which has been hampered by the war between the United States and Iran.

These purchases highlight how the war is reshaping oil trade in the Middle East, allowing companies with ships and trading networks to acquire Iraqi crude at significant discounts, while Baghdad struggles to maintain exports through the Strait of Hormuz.
