Saudi Aramco on Tuesday reported a jump in second-quarter profit, following a period of severe disruption through the Strait of Hormuz amid the sprawling Middle East conflict. The world's largest oil company posted adjusted net income of 125.2 billion Saudi riyal ($33.4 billion) over the April to June period, up 33% year-on-year and beating analyst expectations of $31.59 billion. The results come as oil supermajors have reported blowout quarterly profits, benefitting from higher fossil fuel prices amid hostilities between the U.S. and Iran. The more than five-month-old conflict, which was already expanding beyond its main fronts, has embroiled further countries in the Middle East in recent days, notably the likes of Iraq and Egypt.
