Shell USA President: Recovery from Strait Closure May Take Up to Six Months

Season 2026 Episode 8181 | 17m 48s

Even if the Strait of Hormuz were to reopen today, it could still take up to six months for operations to return to normal. This is a warning from the president of Shell USA, who says the disruption caused by the Iran war will be felt long after a peace agreement is reached. Colette Hirstius joins Walter Isaacson to discuss how one of the world's largest oil companies views the crisis.
