“…Some scholars have also found that the links of global oil trade networks show a gradual shrinking trend, natural gas trade networks show a trend of first tightening and then decreasing ties, oil trade networks are more resilient to deliberate attacks than natural gas, and natural gas trade networks are more resilient to random attacks than oil. For example, Shahnazi et al (2022) [22] found that China, Belarus, the United States, India, Taiwan, the Republic of Korea, Germany, Canada, Spain, and Italy are highly unstable while playing a significant role in the network, thereby reducing the resilience of the importers' network. In addition, Saudi Arabia, Russian Federation, Iraq, Canada, Nigeria, Kuwait, Venezuela, Iran, Mexico, and Kazakhstan reduce the global oil trading network's resilience in exports.…”

Existing studies mainly focus on the evolutionary characteristics of the global crude oil trade network under a steady state, neglecting to analyze the competition and cooperation among countries regarding crude oil as a strategic resource from a spatial–geographical perspective. There needs to be more studies analyzing the impact of crude oil trade disruptions on the resilience of the whole network from the perspective of supply and demand shocks in different influential countries, thus promoting the sustainable development of the global economy and the transition to green energy. Based on the global crude oil trade data from 2007 to 2020, this paper examines the structural evolution of the trade network using a complex network approach and simulates the impact of disruptions on its resilience. Results indicate that the global crude oil trade network expands and becomes more closely connected, and five major trade groups have been formed. Further simulation reveals that the impact of national disruptions on global trade resilience is not linear. Moreover, the influence from core countries is significantly higher than peripheral countries.
