20 Million Barrels Vanished. China Kept the Price From Exploding.
Up to 20 million barrels a day vanished at the April peak. Prices never exploded — because Beijing stopped buying and lived off a 1.2-billion-barrel stockpile.

- Hormuz carried about 20% of global crude and refined products before closure.
