We are deeply honoured to be recognised as Best Consulting Firm 2026 at the Spanish Business Awards 2026 by EU Business News. This award is not only a recognition of Enerdealers’ work, but a reflection of the collective effort, trust, and commitment of an extraordinary ecosystem that has supported us throughout our journey.

The United Arab Emirates’ decision to leave OPEC and OPEC+ marks one of the biggest ruptures in oil diplomacy in decades, and it comes at a time when the market is already strained by the Iran war and tight spare capacity.

That is the gap the new European Resilience Alliance for Clean Hydrogen & Derivatives, or ERA, wants to close.

The crisis in the Strait of Hormuz is no longer just an upstream crude-price story; it is becoming a refined-products and logistics story, with governments in Asia, Europe, Africa and Latin America moving quickly to protect diesel, gasoline, jet fuel and fuel oil supply. For decision makers, the key takeaway is that the disruption is forcing a re-rating of supply security from “available on the market” to “available on the right route, in the right grade, at the right time.
