Repair and restoration costs for energy-linked infrastructure damaged in the Middle East war could reach as much as $58 billion, Rystad Energy said Wednesday, which indicated oil and gas facilities may account for up to $50 billion of the total. The consultancy estimated that total repair and restoration spending across affected energy-linked facilities at between $34 billion and $58 billion, with an average estimate of $46 billion, including about $5 billion for industrial, power and desalination assets. Rystad said the conflict is becoming a broader test for the global energy supply chain, as rebuilding efforts compete for the same equipment, contractors and logistics capacity already committed to LNG and offshore projects launched since 2023.
