The crude math is easy. Prewar 14.8 mbpd crude (the 20 number includes products) through the SOH. Now 1.5 Iranian plus about 1 mpbd extra going through bypasses around UAE so total shut in around 12.3 mbpd. Now 5 mbpd exiting via Yanbu so total deficit 7.3 mbpd crude. Demand elasticity is at minimum -.1% for the globe though most academic studies put it at 2x that. Even at a conservative number the move in price from 65 -> 100 is 50% up so 5% decline in demand or about 5.2 mbpd. So total current shortfall at $100 is about 7.3 - 5.2 =2.1 mbpd. This is trivially made up by releases from global stockpiles of nearly 3 billion barrels. So no the price is not going to $150 or $200.

Iran Says Ready to Let Japan Vessels Use Hormuz, Kyodo Reports
Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi said the nation is prepared to allow Japanese-related vessels to pass through the Strait of Hormuz after consultations between the countries’ officials, according to Kyodo News.
Araghchi made the comments in an interview with the Japanese news agency on Friday, Kyodo said. Japan relies heavily on the Middle East for its oil-import needs. The war in Iran prompted the Asian nation to release oil from its reserves this month. (Bloomberg)
