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 July 2025, Spain's road diesel supply was 706 kt: 34% from its own refineries, with imports mainly from Italy (26%), Singapore (14%) and Kuwait (7%); tracing one step back, the crude behind it is estimated to come mainly from Libya (8%), the United States (7%) and Nigeria (5%), and 43% cannot be traced.

Fuel that cannot be traced, and the reason
- Singapore: no crude data (99,911 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
- Kuwait: no crude data (48,954 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
- Panama: no crude data (43,795 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
- Marshall Islands: no crude data (37,062 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
- Gibraltar: no crude data (30,243 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
- United States: no crude data (19,817 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
- Italy: crude not from imports (19,282 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.
- Smaller flows: no crude data (4,193 t): We hold no crude import statistics for the supplying country, and we do not assume what its refineries run on.
- Smaller flows: crude not from imports (1,920 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.
- Smaller flows: crude origin not reported (0 t): The supplying country's statistics did not say where part of its crude came from.
- 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.
