⛽ Fuel pressure spreads as war drives global energy strain

Fuel disruptions are spreading across markets as the U.S.-Israel war on Iran and resulting closure of the Strait of Hormuz hits supply chains, with governments moving to contain shortages and price spikes.

🔸 U.S. gas prices have climbed to around $3.80 per gallon, their highest level since 2023 and up sharply from under $3 before the war, according to AP reporting.

🔸 Trump issued a 60-day waiver of the Jones Act, allowing foreign-flagged ships to carry fuel between U.S. ports to speed deliveries and ease price pressure

🔸 Slovakia announced today it is limiting diesel sales, allowing only small container purchases and capping transactions to prevent shortages and panic buying

Carlyle’s Jeff Currie said the shock is now global, with fuel markets tightening from Singapore to Rotterdam and refined product prices already surging above $200 per barrel in some hubs. He pointed to crude delivered into Asia trading far above benchmark prices, underscoring how supply constraints are emerging unevenly across regions. He warned physical supply is tightening far faster than financial markets reflect, calling the disconnect between “paper” and real-world prices a sign the crisis is being underpriced.

He said the global oil market “hasn’t even started” rebalancing yet.

💢 At least 89 vessels crossed the Strait of Hormuz between March 1–15, including 16 oil tankers, as traffic collapsed from roughly 100–135 ships per day pre-war, according to AP, citing Lloyd’s List Intelligence. 

Iran has still exported more than 16 million barrels of oil since the start of March, largely to China, showing its ability to keep flows moving despite the conflict. 

➤ More than one-fifth of vessels were Iran-affiliated
➤ Others were tied to China and Greece
➤ Additional ships, including India- and Pakistan-linked vessels, also passed through following diplomatic talks

Strait of Hormuz flows (Bloomberg via 
@Kpler
 )

- Iranian crude exports account for around 3/4 of the barrels that have left the Persian Gulf (works out to around 1.2mbd vs pre-war average of 1.5mbd)

- Exports from others in the region amount to 400kb/d vs 14mbd pre-war 

- Crude loadings at Iran’s Kharg Island also appear to continue undisturbed, despite US strikes on the export hub.
