Western Sahara

Western Sahara faces high energy security risk, being 100% reliant on oil imports with 25 days of gasoline reserves. Gasoline prices are at $1.12/L, contributing to economic pressures in the disputed territory, alongside a moderate food risk and a 45% increase in fertilizer costs. While its Hormuz exposure is low, the global supply crunch and high Brent prices challenge its import capabilities. The region's phosphate resources offer some economic resilience, but sustained high energy costs will continue to strain its limited resources and infrastructure in the coming weeks.
