"Oil's global choke points" 
More than 35 million barrels of oil is transported by ship and pipeline very day, and much of it passes through bottlenecks that are narrow and risky - some even known to be targeted by pirates or terrorists. It takes only one such incident to upset the balance of global oil trade, resulting in a domino effect that hits shipping routes, travel times, and delivery schedules.

Note from  Harry: 
This is a concern, any disruption causes $$ issues.
