The war against Iran almost tripled the profits of American oil companies According to the New York Times report, more than 50 major American oil and gas companies made more than 130 billion dollars in profits between April and September 2026; A figure that was less than 47 billion dollars in the corresponding period last year. This increase in profit was recorded at a time when the war against Iran caused a disruption in the global energy supply and an increase in fuel prices. According to this report, the American refineries enjoyed a higher profit rate due to the damage to the refining facilities in the Middle East and Russia and the reduction of the fuel supply capacity.
