The war between the United States (US) and Israel against Iran, which erupted in late February 2026, sparked concerns about the closure of the Strait of Hormuz.

The Strait of Hormuz is a shipping route in the Middle East that passes through part of Iran, which plays a crucial role in global oil trade.

"The strait is deep enough and wide enough to handle the world's largest crude oil tankers, and it is one of the world's most important oil chokepoints," said the U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) in its report Amid regional conflict, the Strait of Hormuz remains a critical oil chokepoint (June 2025).

"Large volumes of oil flow through the strait, and very few alternative options exist to move oil out of the strait if it is closed," they said.

According to EIA data, in the first quarter of 2025, the volume of oil supplies sent through the Strait of Hormuz reached 20.1 million barrels per day (a combination of crude oil, condensate, and oil products).

This figure equates to 19.69% or roughly one-fifth of total global oil consumption.

In the first quarter of 2025, the country that sent the most oil via the Strait of Hormuz was Saudi Arabia, with a volume of 5.29 million barrels per day (a combination of crude oil and condensate, excluding oil products).

During the 2020-2024 period, Saudi Arabia also consistently remained the country sending the most oil through this route.

The Strait of Hormuz is also widely used by major oil-producing countries in the Middle East to export their oil, namely Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Iran, Kuwait, and Qatar, as detailed in the chart.
