The head of the US Department of Energy announced an increase in oil prices for several weeks

Oil prices in the United States will continue to rise, probably for several more weeks. This was announced on April 13 by Chris Wright, the Head of the US Department of Energy, speaking at the Semafor economic conference in Washington.

"We will see high energy prices, you know. Maybe we'll even see growth. Until the passage of ships through the Strait of Hormuz reaches a tangible figure. By that time, the price is likely to peak. Probably over the next few weeks," he said.
