The United Arab Emirates plans to build a new oil pipeline that will bypass the Strait of Hormuz Abu Dhabi's national oil company, Adnoc, is considering building a third pipeline that will run from the west coast of the United Arab Emirates to the port of Fujairah in the east. The pipeline can be opened for use by third parties and will complement the existing ones, especially another oil pipeline that is planned to go up next year, which will strengthen the ability to supply consumers in case of future disruptions in Hormuz. Adnoc currently operates a pipeline connecting its onshore fields in the western UAE to Fujairah, with a capacity of approximately 2 million B/D. In May, the company said it was accelerating construction of a second pipeline that would double capacity. Last month, the company told several Asian refiners that they would be able to take the oil delivered to Fujairah through the pipeline in early 2027.
