Iraq trucked 720,000 tons of fuel oil through Syria in June, making Syria the Middle East’s largest fuel oil shipper with a 28% share of regional volumes, according to Vortexa data. The loads travel four to six days by truck to the Mediterranean port of Baniyas, with Geneva-based Lytton SA handling the majority of the trucking. Iraq’s oil ministry pegged total trucked fuel oil exports via Syria and Jordan at 1 million tons in June, up from about 500,000 tons in May, while roughly 100,000 tons a month move through Jordan’s Red Sea port of Aqaba.
