The SCA’s Chairman said that the number of petroleum tankers ranked third among the ships that passed through the canal. Its number reached 5,451 with total load of 236,000 tons achieving revenues of $1.2 billion due to the increased demand on oil.

It should be noted that the Suez Canal’s revenues reached $5.8 billion during FY 2021/20.
