Clean Petroleum Product Movements via Red Sea Slip Heavily: Vortexa

OIL PRODUCTS

Vortexa has flagged a significant decrease in clean petroleum product (CPP) tankers transiting the Suez because of Red Sea transit risks.

  • Southbound transits of CPP have largely stopped, hovering at slightly over one transit per day on a moving average basis.
  • Remaining vessels moving on the route are nearly all Russian origin heading east it said.
  • Northbound CPP transits had been recovering before the US/UK airstrikes on January 12 but sharply fell after.
  • See chart for daily Bab-el-Mandeb CPP tanker transits – both Northbound and Southbound via Vortexa.
