The author suggests the "white list" could soon include oil tankers, which would increase supply transit through the Strait of Hormuz. Increased oil shipments would relieve a major supply chokepoint, putting downward pressure on global oil prices. A potential reopening of the Strait to oil tankers is a catalyst for lower oil prices. The deal could fall apart, Iran could reverse course, or geopolitical tensions could re-escalate, keeping the strait restricted.
