Key points A major shipping route saw significant volumes of diesel and gasoil move through it in August, nearing last year's levels. Disruptions to global energy trade have led to changes in diesel supply.
Disruptions to global energy trade have led to changes in diesel supply. A major shipping route saw significant volumes of diesel and gasoil move through it in August, nearing last year's levels. This followed a period of reduced flows in March and April.
Tensions in a certain region affected oil and gas supplies, but efforts to diversify imports and boost domestic production helped limit the impact. As a result, a country is now a key player in overseas fuel supplies, thanks to its surplus.
Further information on this development is available, including data on the volume of diesel supplied and the role of specific refiners.
