Jordan

Jordan is highly vulnerable to the current crisis, with 98% oil import dependency and significant exposure to Hormuz disruptions, contributing to a high overall risk score. Gasoline prices are $1.18/L, and fuel reserves stand at 32 days, providing a short-term buffer but highlighting long-term fragility. The critical Aqaba port, a primary energy supply route, is under immense pressure, impacting the broader economy and leading to a moderate food risk with fertilizer costs up 65%. The outlook suggests continued strain on supply chains and domestic prices, necessitating proactive measures to diversify energy imports and secure alternative routes.
