جزيرة خرج، despite its small size, plays a crucial role in Irans oil industry. It serves as the main conduit for approximately 90% of Irans crude oil exports.

Located in the Persian Gulf, near the city of Bushehr, the island houses facilities for loading, storage, and processing of oil, with a capacity to ship up to 7 million barrels per day. U. S.

officials have reportedly discussed the possibility of controlling the island to pressure Irans economy, but analysts warn of the complexities and potential consequences, including a possible spike in oil prices and Irans potential self - sabotage of the oil pipeline.
