Jack Prandelli(@jackprandelli):🇸🇦Saudi Arabia's oil has exactly 2 ways out right now both are compromised... East via Hormuz: Ras Tanura → strait → ship-to-ship transfer → Malacca → Asia. 3,370nm 10 days. Fast, but running through the exact chokepoint that's been disrupted since February. West via Red Sea: Yanbu → partial pipeline discharge → Sidi Kerir → around the Cape of Good Hope → Asia. 29+ days. Nearly triple the distance because Bab al-Mandeb is also blocked, forcing a full Africa detour instead of the Suez shortcut. Both of Saudi's coastal export options are compromised at once that's the real story here, not just Hormuz. image source:AlJaazera
