L-01 · L-03

About 20 million barrels of oil a day and about one third of seaborne fertiliser trade passed through the strait in 2024 [2].

CHOKEPOINT

Single passage

Bunker fuel prices rose about 100% between 27 February and 9 March 2026 and war-risk premiums were repriced [2].

COST

Freight and insurance

UNCTAD built a tracking tool for shipping, food, energy and finance indicators; the tool itself was not opened here [4] [44].

LEARNING

Early-warning data

B.5How countries appear in the infrastructure and logistics edition

Countries enter the infrastructure edition through the infrastructure and logistics chapters of their own national editions, on one card grammar. They are read against peer distributions and thresholds, never ranked.

How to read a country card

  • Each system is shown against the distribution of its peers, with thresholds where they exist
  • Couplings and risk objects come from the country’s own national edition
  • Capability rungs record evidence, not a judgement of institutions
  • Evidence age is printed, so older national data are visible as such
