Worst case scenario: how long can china survive if oil from middle east is disrupted?
In 2026, China's ability to survive a Middle East oil disruption is bolstered by record-high stockpiles and aggressive storage expansion. Current estimates suggest China could endure a total cutoff from Middle Eastern oil for approximately 1 to 4 years, depending on how strictly it manages its remaining supplies and alternative sources.
One factor should not to be overlooked:
Only country that will trigger a middle east supply sea route cut off is USA.
If that happens, China will likely cut off most of the products export directly and indirecty to USA, economy in China will be negatively impacted but the drop in consumtopn will extend the period that China can keep its basic economy ticking over.**
The big question here is: how long can USA survive without products (directy or indirectly) import from China?

China reduces oil dependent risk (imports from middle east countries) for electricity generation:
In 2025, oil and gas remained significant but decreasing components of China's primary energy mix, with renewables rapidly growing; coal still dominated electricity, but its share declined as clean sources met most new demand, while China boosted domestic oil/gas output and reduced fossil fuel use overall, shifting towards a more diversified, lower-carbon system by mid-decade.
In 2024, China imported 11.1 million barrels of crude oil per day.
Russia shipped nearly 2.2 million barrels per day (b/d), making it the largest single exporter of crude oil to China.
