Crude Oil Shipments Resume Through Strait of Hormuz

Tehran. Signs of resumption of crude oil transportation activities from West Asia to the Asian market through the Strait of Hormuz have been seen. Three giant supertankers, which were stopped in the Gulf region for more than two months, exited through the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday.

International shipping data shows that these ships carry approximately 6 million barrels of crude oil. Meanwhile, another supertanker is said to be entering the Gulf region. These ships are among the limited number of ships using a special transit route directed by Iran to cross the Strait.
