Russia ranked second and Saudi Arabia third, according to figures compiled from JODI and OPEC data.

Global exports averaged about 8.2 million barrels a day.
Türkiye ranked 21st, exporting an average of 78,900 barrels a day and holding 1% of the global total.
Diesel is widely used in transport, farming and industry, so interruptions at major refining and export centres can affect fuel markets and supply chains.
Türkiye’s export figure alone does not show whether it was a net exporter, because imports must also be considered; no further action is stated.
