[Press Release]

New IEA report highlights options to ease oil price pressures on
consumers in response to Middle East supply disruptions
----------------------------------------------------------------
Demand-side measures available to governments, businesses and households 
span road transport, air travel, cooking and industry amid strains in 
diesel, jet fuel and LPG markets

The International Energy Agency today set out a range of demand-side 
actions that governments, businesses and households can take to 
alleviate the economic impacts on consumers of the disruptions to oil 
markets stemming from the war in the Middle East.

The conflict has triggered the largest supply disruption in the history 
of the global oil market, with shipping through the Strait of Hormuz, 
which normally carries around 20% of global oil consumption, reduced to 
a trickle. Around 20 million barrels per day of crude oil and oil 
products typically transit the Strait. The loss of these flows has 
tightened markets significantly, pushing crude oil prices above $100 per 
barrel and driving even sharper increases in refined products such as 
diesel, jet fuel and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG).

A new IEA report identifies ten measures that can be implemented quickly 
by governments, businesses and households. These actions focus primarily 
on road transport, which accounts for around 45% of global oil demand, 
but also cover aviation, cooking and industry. Widespread adoption, 
where possible, would amplify their global impact and help cushion the 
shock.
