IMPORTANT OIL STRAITS
The Danish Straits and Turkish Straits, together transited by a combined volume of more than 5 million barrels per day (b/d) in 2016, are important chokepoints for Europe’s crude oil and petroleum liquids supply. Nearly 59 million b/d of global petroleum and other liquids production moved on maritime routes in 2015. Although most discussions of maritime chokepoints for oil trade focus on the Strait of Hormuz and the Strait of Malacca, which together were transited by a combined volume of more than 30 million b/d, other chokepoints are significant for specific regions.

Суд обязал Украину выплатить Российской Федерации номинальную стоимость облигаций в сумме 3 млрд. долл. США, в 2013 году приобретенных за счет средств ФНБ, сумму неосуществлённого купонного платежа в размере 75 млн. долл. США и штрафные проценты, начисляемые на эти суммы.

BP ENERGY REVIEW
Bob Dudley, BP group chief executive, said: “Global energy markets are in transition. The longer-term trends we can see in this data are changing the patterns of demand and the mix of supply as the world works to meet the challenge of supplying the energy it needs while also reducing carbon emissions. At the same time markets are responding to shorter-run run factors, most notably the oversupply that has weighed on oil prices for the past three years."
