The ASEAN Centre for Energy (ACE), as the regional intergovernmental energy organisation of ASEAN and the Secretariat of the ASEAN Framework Agreement on Petroleum Security (APSA), is recalling the ASEAN Foreign Ministers’ Statement on the Situation in the Middle East on 04 March 2026. ACE acknowledged the role of the Middle East region in the ASEAN energy sector, particularly in oil and gas, as more than half of ASEAN’s crude oil imports are from the region, especially from the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, and Kuwait.
