Attacks on Saudi Arabia’s East-West pipeline knocked out 700,000 barrels per day (bpd) of the kingdom’s oil capacity, or roughly 10 percent of its current exports, according to a statement by the kingdom’s energy ministry on Thursday.

“These attacks included a pumping station on the vital East-West pipeline, leading to a loss of approximately 700,000 barrels per day of pumped volume through the pipeline, which is the main route for supplying global markets during this period,” the energy ministry said.

The statement marked the first official confirmation that Saudi Arabia’s energy facilities have suffered damage as a result of Iranian strikes, and comes just as the US and Iran gear up for high-profile peace talks in Islamabad, Pakistan.
