Ash Oro @ashoro.co.uk · 10/10/2026That is lost export throughput from those regions, not necessarily an equivalent global shortage. Other refineries have increased output and demand has adjusted. Nevertheless, it shows the scale of the disruption to established trade. 1151
Ash Oro @ashoro.co.uk · 10/10/2026August has 31 days. 1.6 million barrels per day × 31 = 49.6 million barrels of reduced export throughput in August alone, measured against February's rate. Now let's convert that into the same tanker capacity so we can actually compare the problems to the proposed solution in real terms. 1111
Ash Oro @ashoro.co.uk · 10/10/202649.6 million barrels divided by 6.29 barrels per cubic metre is approximately 7.89 million m³. Divide that by our 117,600 m³ cargo capacity and we get roughly 67 large tanker cargoes. That's one month's reduced export throughput. 190
