Sabereen News, an Iraq-based outlet, cited new satellite imagery to report massive fires along the Saudi oil export pipeline, according to the news outlet of pro-Iranian factions in Iraq.

Newsquawk, which picked up the Sabereen report, said it was unclear whether the fires marked a new incident or damage carried over from an earlier reported Sunday attack on Saudi Arabia's East-West pipeline.

Bloomberg reported Monday that oil continued to flow through the East-West link, citing people who asked not to be identified while discussing private information. Bloomberg confirmed the conduit was briefly halted over the weekend because of the attack.

Liberia's national oil company NOCAL and Nigeria-based LADOL signed a Joint Development Agreement to advance plans for an oil and gas logistics and shorebase facility in Buchanan, Grand Bassa County, according to The New Dawn Liberia.

The agreement is intended to establish infrastructure supporting anticipated offshore drilling and to expand opportunities for Liberian businesses and workers in the petroleum sector, The New Dawn Liberia reported.

Under the deal, LADOL will act as NOCAL's technical lead partner for the proposed Buchanan Shorebase, covering the feasibility study, engineering design, construction and eventual operation.

New Zealand's average price for 91-octane unleaded petrol reached NZD 3.505 per liter on Monday, according to Gaspy director Mike Newton, who spoke to Radio New Zealand (RNZ). That figure edged past the NZD 3.502 per liter recorded in April during the Middle East conflict, Newton said. In US terms, the Monday average worked out to about USD 1.96 per liter.

A weaker New Zealand dollar is driving part of the increase by making imported fuel more expensive and adding upward pressure on pump prices.
