Kuwait Crude Exports Hit Zero in April, First Since Gulf War
Kuwait exported zero barrels of crude oil in April 2026, according to tanker-tracking estimates, marking the first month without crude shipments since the end of Gulf War I.
Kuwait is still producing oil, but output is being directed partly into storage and partly into refined products, some of which have been exported. Available tanker-tracking information indicated that no crude cargoes departed during the month.

@tankertrackers@TajimK70157 Kuwait still produces oil which it then takes partly into storage and partly into refined products; some of which has been exported. Crude oil however, hasn't departed to our best knowledge.
