Oil loading operations ‌at the United Arab Emirates’ Fujairah emirate, a major bunkering hub ​and crude export terminal, have ​resumed following a drone attack ⁠and fire on Saturday, ​a Fujairah-based industry source told Reuters.

Fujairah, ​outside the Strait of Hormuz, is the outlet for about 1 million barrels ​per day of the ​UAE’s Murban crude oil - a volume equal ‌to ⁠about 1% of world demand.

Abu Dhabi state oil giant ADNOC, which operates in the emirate, ​did ​not immediately ⁠respond to a request for comment.

Bloomberg News ​earlier reported the resumption ​of ⁠oil loading operations in the emirate.
