For example Iran and Qatar have an incentive that Israel will go to a war with Lebanon - to increase the oil consumption.
Or if Yemen shoots on ships in the Red Sea, they now have to take the long route around Africa.
The USD being the world’s reserve currency for oil trade makes the USA a middleman and they get a cut of the profits, but the main beneficiaries from increased oil consumption are the oil producers.
