Gasoline land shipments to Iraq start after Syria arrival
Gasoline shipments are now being transported overland from Syria to Iraq via a new land route, following their arrival in Syria. This initiative aims to strengthen cooperation in the oil sector and to provide an alternative to export routes through the Strait of Hormuz, which Iraq has stopped using for some time. The first shipment consisted of approximately 32,800 tons of gasoline, which was unloaded at the Baniyas refinery in Syria before being transported by trucks to the Iraqi border. This route aims to establish a two-way energy corridor between the two countries, with the potential to expand its use to include other petroleum products or crude oil in the future. It comes as part of Iraq’s efforts to diversify its fuel import routes after halting its use of the Strait of Hormuz.
