Australia's export revenue is projected to increase by approximately US$26 billion due to disruptions in the global energy market caused by the conflict in Iran.

The Department of Industry, Science and Resources forecasts total resources exports to reach A$416 billion in the financial year ending June 2027, assuming trade disruptions continue until mid-2026.
