Both years use the same oil scale. The table includes vessel counts.
Oil volumes fell even as vessel counts increased
The published annual oil total fell by about 11.9 million barrels, or 3.4%, from 2024 to 2025. Reported vessel calls rose by 14, about 6.1%. Those two indicators can move in different directions in the same year. Source 1
A ratio gives an aggregate view of barrels per reported vessel
Dividing the annual volume by the reported vessel count gives about 1.39 million barrels in 2025 and 1.53 million in 2024. The ratio is an aggregate comparison and does not identify cargo quantities for individual vessels. Source 1
The strongest month changed between years
July led the 2025 loading series with about 30.26 million barrels. August was the highest month in 2024 with 31.49 million. August also had 23 vessels in both years, even though its loaded oil volume declined. Source 1
The measure is specific to one port and one activity
The yearbook separates loaded oil in barrels, vessel counts and unloaded refined petroleum products by weight. The figures describe Mina al-Fahal and cannot be read as Oman's total seaborne exports or total maritime freight. Source 1
