The oil supply shortage will further intensify this month, said Fatih Birol, executive director of the International Energy Agency (IEA).

Before the outbreak of war, there had already been some vessels carrying oil and natural gas passing through the Strait of Hormuz, Birol said. Those ships were still en route to various ports last month, but no such cargoes have arrived at ports this month, meaning that the oil shortage will be twice that of last month.

Shortages of other energy sources like liquefied natural gas (LNG) will also exacerbate inflation and weigh on economic growth in many countries, particularly emerging economies, Birol added. Many countries may soon have to implement energy rationing. At present, the most pressing issue is the shortage of aviation fuel and diesel. Such conditions have already been observed in Asia and may spread to Europe this month or early next month.
