  1. 1

    Germany: jet fuel available in June 2026

    Everything refined in the country plus everything imported.

  2. 2

    Where that fuel came from

    Germany's refineries ran on (going by its crude imports, April–June 2026)

    The Netherlands' refineries ran on (going by its crude imports, April–June 2026)

    Belgium's refineries ran on (going by its crude imports, April–June 2026)

  3. 3

    The crude behind Germany's jet fuel

Assumptions
  • Exports are assumed to be drawn from every source in proportion to its share of supply.
  • Each country's refineries are assumed to run on its crude-import mix over the latest three months.
  • The chain looks back one country only; fuel re-exported through a supplier is not followed further.
  • The crude origin is the producing country the statistics report, not the loading terminal, so the Hormuz answer is a range wherever a producer loads both inside and outside the Persian Gulf.

In June 2026, most jet fuel available in Germany was refined in Germany (59%), followed by the Netherlands (37%).

Germany's refineries ran on crude from the United States (23%), Kazakhstan (16%) and Norway (16%), going by its crude imports in April–June 2026.

Taken together, an estimated 24% of the crude behind Germany's jet fuel came from the United States, 17% from Norway and 14% from Kazakhstan; 5% cannot be traced.

Between 1% and 7% of the crude behind Germany's jet fuel is estimated to have passed through the Strait of Hormuz, a limited dependence judged on the upper bound. No midpoint is published: crude that cannot be traced is counted as anything from none to all of it.

This is an estimate, not a reported figure: it assumes exports are drawn proportionally from every source and that each country's refineries run on its crude-import mix, and it looks back only one country.
