Plan B for crude oil

Despite the incident The Suez Canal is blockaded culminating in an increase in oil prices, that sector is actually less affected than the others.

This is because only about 1.74 million barrels of crude oil are sent through the channel made by Ferdinand de Lesseps every day.

As much as 80 percent of Middle Eastern oil for Europe, which is not much in quantity, is sent via the Sumed pipeline from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean near Alexandria, said Paola Rodriguez of Rystad Energy.

The evacuation of the Ever Given or Evergreen vessels can take days or even weeks.

Due to the jammed Suez Canal, other ships had to circle around the southern tip of Africa.

The waterway shipping giants, Maersk and Hapaq-Lloyd, are seriously considering options other than rerouting.

If they took the rotating option, they would have to pay an additional several hundred thousand dollars (billions of rupiah), which would result in a 15-20 percent increase in shipping costs, according to analyst Plamen Matzkoff at VesselsValue.

Lloyd’s List continues, up to 90 percent of shipments are uninsured for delays.

As a result, lawyers will continue to be busy arguing over who should pay the bills.

It can cost several million US dollars (tens to tens of billions of rupiah) to unload a ship to a dock that is not intended, according to estimates by Jai Sharma of Clyde and Co, because the containers have to be unloaded first.

However, carrier insurance policies are mostly covered by several companies, said Moody’s analyst Soichiro Makimoto.

Therefore, the payments may be shared by the insurance and reinsurance companies.
