Good morning, lovely people. <\/span>We\u2019re back with yet another packed issue, filled with diplo news<\/span> and fresh proposals from countries on new trade routes in the region. <\/span><\/p>\n

THE BIG LOGISTICS STORY- Israel and the US are pushing for a \u201cland bridge\u201d to link the UAE and Israeli ports <\/span>via Saudi Arabia and Jordan. <\/span><\/p>\n

HAPPENING TODAY-<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/span>A joint ministerial meeting for strategic dialogue between the GCC and <\/span>Russia is kicking off today in Moscow<\/span>, according to a GCC <\/span>statement<\/a><\/span>. The talks will see the two sides swap views and coordinate on regional and international issues, as well as help strengthen ties between the GCC and Moscow, the statement said,<\/span><\/p>\n

The US Navy blocked what it says was an attempt by Iran to seize two commercial oil tankers in the <\/span>Gulf of Oman last week<\/span>, according to a <\/span>US Navy statement<\/a><\/span>(pdf)<\/a><\/span>. In two separate incidents, Iranian naval vessels approached the tankers \u2014 the Marshall Islands-flagged TRF Moss and the <\/span>Chevron<\/a><\/span>-owned, Bahamas-flagged Richmond Voyager \u2014 but the US Navy deployed its guided-missile destroyer USS McFaul to intervene. The Iranian vessels both moved away upon the US ship\u2019s approach, but the latter had fired at the Richmond Voyager with small arms before the destroyer\u2019s arrival, hitting the tanker\u2019s hull. No casualties were reported and Chevron confirmed that operations have returned to normal, according to <\/span>Reuters<\/a><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s response: <\/span>Iranian authorities said that the country\u2019s navy was acting in accordance with a court order to seize the Richmond Voyager after it collided with an Iranian vessel, causing damage and injuries, according to the <\/span>Islamic Republic of Iran News Network<\/a><\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/span>The International Maritime Organization<\/span>has adopted a revised strategy to reduce <\/span>shipping emissions<\/span>, according to a <\/span>statement<\/a><\/span>.<\/span> The <\/span>IMO<\/a><\/span>\u2019s new strategy sets updated targets, including reaching net-zero GHG emissions from international shipping by around 2050 and ensuring an \u201cuptake of alternative zero and near-zero GHG fuels by 2030.\u201d The strategy outlines measures to promote energy transition, assess impacts on states, and provide capacity-building and technical cooperation. It also includes checkpoints for emission reduction in 2030 and 2040.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/span>WATCH THIS SPACE #1-<\/span>Iran and Vietnam plan to ink a preferential trade and <\/span>bartering agreement to enhance bilateral trade and economic ties<\/span>, state aligned Iranian <\/span>Tasnim News Agency<\/a><\/span> reported. Iran\u2019s Trade Promotion Organization Acting Head Mehdi Zeyghami and Iran\u2019s Vietnamese Ambassador Luong Quoc Huy discussed the plans, as well as the upcoming<\/span> Iran-Vietnam Economic Forum<\/span>, during a meeting on Saturday. Zeyghami also called for the two countries to organize an Iran-Vietnam Joint Economic Commission to bolster trade ties, the news agency writes.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/span> WATCH THIS SPACE #2-<\/span>The European Commission is set to propose measures tomorrow aimed <\/span>at lowering emissions from freight transport<\/span>, <\/span>Bloomberg<\/a><\/span> reported on Thursday, citing a draft document it has seen. The measures include reducing red tape, coordinating international rail traffic, and using digital technologies. \u201cUnnecessary regulatory obstacles continue to undermine the efficiency of European freight, limiting the scope for emissions reductions,\u201d the document read. Freight transport accounts for over 30% of carbon dioxide emissions in the transportation sector, according to the document. The sector is expected to grow by 25% by the end of the decade from 2015 levels and 50% by 2050.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/a> <\/span>DATA POINT #1- Global air cargo demand, measured in cargo tonne-kilometers <\/span>(CTKs), fell 5.2% y-o-y in May<\/span>, according to data released by the <\/span>International Air Transport Association (IATA)<\/a><\/span>. Capacity, measured by available cargo tonne-kilometers (ACTKs), rose 14.5%, fuelled by the expansion of belly capacity as passenger business recovers. Demand was hit by several factors including a contraction in global manufacturing and a decrease in global goods trade (down 0.8% in April), according to IATA. <\/span><\/p>\n

How did MENA\u2019s airlines fare? <\/span>The region\u2019s airlines reported a 3.1% y-o-y decline in cargo volumes, showing a slight improvement from a <\/span>6.7% decrease in April<\/a><\/span>. Airlines increased capacity by 15.6% y-o-y, the data showed. African airlines recorded a 2.4% y-o-y decrease in demand during the month and a 9.2% y-o-y increase in capacity. <\/span><\/p>\n

Things could look up in 2H 2023: <\/span>Despite the challenging conditions, improvements are expected in the second half of the year, according to Willie Walsh, IATA\u2019s Director General. \u201cAs inflation moderates in many markets, it is widely expected that central bank rate hikes will taper. This should help stimulate economic activity with a positive impact on demand for air cargo,\u201d Walsh said.<\/span><\/p>\n

DATA POINT #2- The UAE's re-export sector is estimated to have a total direct and <\/span>indirect economic impact of AED 48 bn<\/span>, <\/span>WAM<\/a><\/span>cites<\/span> Foreign Trade Minister Thani Al Zeyoudi as saying. The UAE, a major global re-export center, has set a target to increase the added value of its economy through re-exports by 50% by 2030. In 2022, re-exports constituted 27.5% of the UAE's total foreign trade value, contributing 6.6% to the country's GDP and generating around 1.3 mn jobs across different sectors.<\/span><\/p>\n

DATA POINT #3- The port of Alexandria saw a 21%<\/span>y-o-y increase in ship traffic in <\/span>June<\/span>, receiving some 410 ships, according to an Alexandria Port Authority <\/span>statement<\/a><\/span>.<\/span> General cargo vessels recorded the most significant growth at 66%. Container ships saw a 24.3% increase and the number of dry bulk vessels was up by 11%. <\/span><\/p>\n

DATA POINT #4- Mwani Qatar\u2019s ports witnessed a 32% y-o-y increase in container <\/span>transshipment volumes in the first nine months of 2023<\/span>, according to a <\/span>statement<\/a><\/span>. Livestock volumes surged 196% to some 294k heads. Shipments of building and construction materials rose 5.3% y-o-y, to 274.7 tonnes, while the number of ro-ro units increased 5.5% to reach 40.2k units.<\/span><\/p>\n

MARKET WATCH-<\/span><\/p>\n

The Russian oil market has rebalanced itself in light of sanctions:<\/span> Russia\u2019s oil <\/span>exports to Africa have increased 14-fold as it looks to alternative markets following Western sanctions, according to <\/span>S&P Global<\/a><\/span>. Prior to the war, Russia had exported just 33k bbl \/ d to Africa, most of which was gasoline, according to S&P. This has now soared to 420k bbl \/ d as of March 2023.<\/span><\/p>\n

Big MENA markets banking off of the rerouting of Russia\u2019s exports include Tunisia, Egypt, Libya, and Morocco.<\/span> \u201cNorth African states are playing a significant role for Russia in mitigating implications of oil and oil product ban,\u201d independent Russia analyst Timur Kulakhmetov told S&P, adding that this is indicative of a \u201crebalancing\u201d of the market. <\/span><\/p>\n

Also unaffected by sanctions: Iran.<\/span> Iran\u2019s LPG exports reached a record high in May, with <\/span>shipments estimated at 973.3k metric tons, surpassing the previous record set in May 2022, according to <\/span>S&P Global<\/a><\/span>. The increase in exports is in line with projections of 1 mn metric tons per month for the rest of the year, trade sources said. Iran\u2019s oil output has witnessed a substantial increase since the beginning of the year, driven by exemptions from OPEC+ cuts due to US sanctions and expansions in the South Pars gas field. <\/span><\/p>\n

The country is filling a gap in the market left by major OPEC+ producers:<\/span>Iranian oil shipme<\/span>nts reached a five-year high of 1.6 mn bbl \/ d between May and June, the <\/span>Wall Street Journal<\/a><\/span> reports. Saudi Arabia, Russia, and other OPEC+ producers <\/span>have been reducing<\/a><\/span> their oil production to boost prices, though Iran\u2019s exports threaten to derail OPEC+ producers\u2019 plans, the WSJ writes. <\/span><\/p>\n

Iran\u2019s biggest markets?<\/span> China has emerged as Iran's primary oil purchaser, while Syria and Venezuela (both under US sanctions) have also become substantial buyers of Iranian oil. Iranian suppliers are offering a price reduction of USD 30 \/ bbl compared to their competitors in the Arabian Gulf.<\/span><\/p>\n

Kuwait\u2019s Al Zour refinery starts up its third CDU: <\/span>Asia\u2019s oil <\/span>markets are preparing for a surge in exports from Kuwait's Al Zour refinery as it starts up its final crude distillation unit (CDU), <\/span>Reuters<\/a><\/span> reports. Trade sources anticipate that the full impact of Al Zour refinery's operations will be felt in the third quarter as it increases its output. The refinery, operational since November 2022, is one of many increasing capacity this year, Reuters writes. The boost in production and oil product exports, including fuel oil, diesel, jet fuel, and naphtha, from Al Zour is anticipated to impact refining margins. In June, the refinery achieved a monthly export record of 2.8 mn metric tons, with a particular focus on Asian and Middle Eastern markets.<\/span><\/p>\n

About the refinery:<\/span> Al Zour is anticipated to become a massive global exporter for very low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO), producing up to 220k bbl \/ d, Reuters writes. It can also produce about 7 mn tons of ultra-low sulfur diesel, 4 mn tons of jet fuel, and 3 mn tons of naphtha, all of which are expected to be exported globally.<\/span><\/p>\n

The index is currently down 86% from its peak in September 2021 and is 45% lower than its 10-year average of USD 2688. Despite signaling a move towards normal prices, the index is still 4% higher than the average rates from 2019.
