The crude behind Ireland'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 Ireland came from the United Kingdom (93%), followed by Ireland's own refineries (7%).
The crude behind that fuel cannot be traced: we hold no crude import statistics for the United Kingdom.
Taken together, no single crude origin accounts for 5% or more of the crude behind Ireland's jet fuel; 93% cannot be traced.
The largest untraced part (93%) is there because we hold no crude import statistics for the United Kingdom.
Up to 93% of the crude behind Ireland's jet fuel is estimated to have passed through the Strait of Hormuz, a significant 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.
