Flows

How oil reaches each country

Where the EU’s crude oil and fuel come from, as each member state reports its imports; every band’s width is proportional to tonnes.

In June 2026, Hungary's road diesel supply was 449 kt: 26% from its own refineries, with imports mainly from Slovakia (33%), Saudi Arabia (24%) and Austria (7%); tracing one step back, the crude behind it is estimated to come mainly from the Russia (34%), Libya (10%) and Kazakhstan (5%), and 36% cannot be traced.

Left: the crude oil behind the fuel (an estimate). Middle: the countries whose refineries made it. Right: Hungary’s supply of road diesel in 2026-06, in tonnes of fuel. Only the middle-to-right flows are reported figures.

Month: 2026-06 (latest month all EU member states reported). Crude mixes are pooled over 2026-04 to 2026-06.

Fuel that cannot be traced, and the reason

  • Saudi Arabia: no crude data (109,000 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
  • Slovenia: no refinery (20,500 t): The supplying country has no crude oil refinery (a cited confirmed zero), so the fuel was made elsewhere and passed through. We look back one step only.
  • United Arab Emirates: no crude data (11,000 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
  • Hungary: crude not from imports (9,455 t): The refineries used more crude than the country imported (its own production or stocks). That part is not traced rather than being filled with the import mix.
  • Slovakia: crude origin not reported (8,028 t): The supplying country's statistics did not say where part of its crude came from.
  • Smaller flows: crude origin not reported (2,419 t): The supplying country's statistics did not say where part of its crude came from.
  • Smaller flows: crude not from imports (1,641 t): The refineries used more crude than the country imported (its own production or stocks). That part is not traced rather than being filled with the import mix.
  • Only the supplier -> country links are reported figures. The crude -> supplier links are an estimate: each supplier's fuel is split by that supplier's own crude-import mix over the latest three months.
  • Exports are assumed to be drawn from every source in proportion to its share of supply.
  • The chain looks back one country only; fuel re-exported through a supplier is not followed further.
  • Widths are tonnes of this fuel, not tonnes of crude oil: a refinery makes several products from each tonne of crude.
