Al Taweelah has become a new pressure point for global aluminium supply risk.

⚙️ The March 28 attack forced EGA’s entire Al Taweelah complex into an unplanned shutdown, with heavy damage across key aluminium and metal-processing units. The sudden power loss disrupted operations in a way that will not be easy to reverse, showing this is not a short-lived operational setback.

📉 What matters for the market is that Al Taweelah is EGA’s core asset, producing around 1.6 million tonnes of cast aluminium in 2025. When a facility of that scale is hit, supply risk stops being a local issue and starts feeding into the broader industrial metals chain.

⏳ According to EGA’s latest update, a full recovery in primary aluminium production could take up to 12 months. That timeline is long enough for the market to reprice geopolitical premium, especially with the Middle East already a sensitive region for both energy and metals.

📈 In that setting, aluminium prices remain clearly supported in the near term, while market attention will stay fixed on EGA’s next updates. This is no longer just a story about damage at one company, but about how vulnerable global aluminium supply can be when geopolitical shocks hit.
