Middle East diesel flows to Europe disrupted during Iran war
The Middle East has struggled to keep up with diesel demand in Europe since the start of the Iran war in early February. Oman’s 255,000 b/d Duqm refinery has been able to keep up exports from outside of the Strait of Hormuz. But the Hormuz disruptions have left others inside the Persian Gulf such as Kuwait’s 615,000 b/d Al-Zour refinery with few alternative delivery options.
