Saudi Red Sea exports rebound
Saudi Arabia’s Red Sea crude export system is demonstrating renewed resilience after disruption to the East West Pipeline. Confirmed loadings from Yanbu and Muajjiz reached around 45 million barrels between 17 September and 4 October. Satellite imagery captured on 4 October showed two tankers berthed at Yanbu and three occupying all available berths at Muajjiz.
Operations have continued despite heightened regional security risks, while activity at Egypt’s Sidi Kerir signals a broader return of alternative routes for Asian buyers. The recovery strengthens Saudi Arabia’s ability to sustain crude flows while reducing reliance on more exposed maritime chokepoints.
