you know. where every. crude oil prices register the highest price ever in futures trading after the attack on oil facilities in saudi arabia. donald trump says the u.s.
11:49 am
is quote locked and loaded to respond to the attacks but is waiting to verify who was responsible. welcome to our jazeera live from doha i'm martin that is also coming up. counting is underway in tunis is 2nd presidential elections in c.r. of spring as 2 candidates clean the lead. thousands of protesters defy a police baton to demand democratic change in hong kong. saturday join in attacks on saudi arabia's all facilities have triggered a sharp jump in global oil prices oil futures in asia opened 19 percent higher jumping as much as 11.73 dollars a barrel to 71 point $95.00 a barrel that's the largest increase in futures trading began and that was in 1988
11:50 am
riyadh is racing to restore its oil production which has been slashed in half after drones targeted the heart of its energy industry president donald trump is alter ised the release of oil from the strategic petroleum reserve to keep the markets well supplied. right we can speak to our economics editor now a bit early who's here with me how big a moment is this for the markets markets by definition go up and they go down this is huge and the only reason why this is huge is because the audacity of the attack because there's plenty of oil in the market right this very moment and the world the doesn't need extra oil so the fact that this these missiles traveled across hundreds of kilometers of 1st saudi border in saudi land to hit their targets is a real concern for global markets so it's more a matter of sentiment and confidence in the markets rather than the actual amount of oil in the global supply chain at the moment absolutely so if let's have
11:51 am
a look at what we have in the global reserves according to the international energy agency there's about 4100000000 barrels of oil around the world sitting there waiting to be used now the i.a.e.a. basically says that every country should have 90 days worth of reserves just in case there's an event like this i mean they probably didn't predict a new event like this because nobody thought this would would actually happen but here we are now 90 days so the united states has more than $700000000.00 barrels and china has about a half a 1000000000 barrels of oil sitting around the saudis themselves over 188000000 barrels some of that is stored in saudi arabia and then you have some locations around the world mostly in asia where basically you know most of their clients are now now based so in terms of stabilizing the market and reducing fears in terms of the trading community watches saudi arabia be doing right now awaiting some sort of
11:52 am
if you like to come from the saudi authorities saudi arabia really needs to do is to be transparent now they're trying to list. on to the stock market and they've already started the process of saying you know this is how much oil we have in our reserves this is the profits that aramco makes now they've got to come forward in. say these are our reserves that you know we have and this is the amount of oil that has actually been lost on the markets and this is how long it's actually going to take for us to restore that oil back to the markets that's a crucial elements here there's no doubt that the saudis have the capability of of putting the oil back on the market but it's dependent on how long and that's the sentiment which is really going to be affecting markets and remember as well is that a lot of the time there's a lots of algos which are trading oil that's what's pushed up the price they see tweets from from president bush which says you know we're locked and loaded and
11:53 am
that will push up prices because i said geopolitical risk so you know when he says there's plenty of oil in the market that brings oil prices back down right and bringing it right down to the real economy for you and i when there is this kind of significant gesture if you like on the in the markets what does it mean how does how long does it take to trickle down to the likes of you and i am prices for the goods that we need to consume unfortunately oil prices at the pump will be the most likely to go up but almost instantly it's always the case because you know despite despite what oil companies will tell you you know that you know we trade well into violence and everything assume that as soon as something happens or prices at the pumps go up the rest of the inflation will take a bit of time to come 3 can take about between a month to 2 months to for that to hit prices of food and other other other goods or i'd add thank you for that evidently eric nomics editor there were loud as i
11:54 am
mentioned donald trump has said that the u.s. is locked unloaded waiting for a confirmation of who attacked riyadh oil facilities the u.s. secretary of state might compare it already accused iran of the attacks that have been claimed by yemen's who the rebels terror on has denied involvement gabriel elizondo has. well from washington. the u.s. has some of the largest strategic oil reserves anywhere in the world it's 650000000 barrels of oil that are an underground salt caverns in the state of texas and louisiana these are all oil reserves that are only supposed to be tapped in extreme emergencies and trump indicating on sunday evening that he is prepared to authorize the use of this oil should saudi arabia not be able to increase its oil production rapidly enough and there becomes a world oil shortage trump saying that he wasn't going to tap into this yet but would authorize it it gives you an idea of how worried washington is about these
11:55 am
developments right now in terms of u.s. readiness trump also tweeting late sunday that the u.s. was locked and loaded those were his words on twitter ready to prepare preparing a response to the culprits of the attack against the saudi oil facilities he said that the u.s. they believe they know who the culprit was but he did name it but on saturday secretary of state mike pompei o pointed the finger directly at iran in terms of this language trump is using he's used it before and fire in a fury and referencing north korea he's used locked and loaded this terminology before as well it's unclear exactly what he means by that but given that he's the commander in chief of the world's most powerful military here in the united states those are words that must be taken very seriously but the u.s. government's released images which is said to show the actual damage done in saturday's attacks a full reports. these satellite images released by the u.s.
11:56 am
government appear to show damage to part of the oil plant at alba kike in saudi arabia they could prove vital in determining who attacked the plant and from where it looked like they were damaged in the north and west or who shelby's which would mean that they didn't come from yemen with then i would close sort of other people who are closer of those photos and it's not quite clear looks like somebody just from the west could have been calling from yemen we don't yet know who recently launched drones and missiles against saudi arabia were several months now none of them have been able to cause the damage they did they said but this is not new. to the rebels in yemen say they flew armed drones across the border deep into saudi arabia to attack 2 major oil facilities if confirmed it's their most ambitious and devastating operation following dozens of smaller scale strikes in the kingdom in
11:57 am
recent months back and get a sudden and i thought about an old we exploited vulnerabilities in the saudi defense system and we built our drones in order to avoid these systems therefore the saudi and iraqi airspace became open to us after their defense systems failed to even spot the drones about the u.s. secretary of state flames iran for saturday's attacks might pump a 0 says there's no evidence they were launched from yemen although he hasn't explained how iran is to blame or where the drones took off from secretary powell has made clear that the iranian regime is responsible for this attack on civilian areas and infrastructure right are vital to our global energy supply and we're not going to stand for that in fact our department of energy stands ready to tap into the strategic reserves of petroleum reserve a whole must to stabilize the global energy supply iran says it rejects the u.s. accusations it's. what is concerning is the wrong path of the americans in the
11:58 am
region they are supporting saudi arabia and the us in a sort of confessing to their role in creating instability they point the finger at other countries in the region dialogue between regional neighbors is the only solution to resolving the conflict. the state owned oil company saudi aramco says the fires started by the attacks knocked out more than half of its entire daily output close to $6000000.00 barrels of oil the saudi energy minister says stockpiles of oil will be used to offset the loss of production but oil markets haven't seen a shutdown on this scale since iraqi troops invaded kuwait to start the 1st gulf war in 1990 and it's not clear how long repairs will take the impact will depend on how quickly the saudis can restore full production. governor al jazeera now the ballots are being counted in tunis here after almost half of registered

12:00 pm
democratic success story to come out of the so-called arab spring the 1st country where its people took to the streets bringing an end to the 23 year rule of president saying. this is democracy in action yes there are many different candidates to choose from but the question is what can they offer to people are they going to offer real change or is the next president going to be more of the same voters here are telling us they're tired of empty promises. the next president is pressing issues to deal with unemployment is higher than it was before the 2011 revolution the security situation is a concern and corruption remains rampant the new leader will face a population hungry for change especially the youth many have told us they don't trust the politicians. to leave these elections are a good thing it's the 1st time we've had a debate on t.v. without presidential candidates we used to watch the debates on t.v.
