Tanker Carrying Saudi Oil Passes Through Strait Of Hormuz, Bloomberg Reports
Vessel-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg indicates that seven ships left the Persian Gulf on Saturday.
It is noted that, in addition to the oil tanker, two liquefied petroleum gas tankers and four bulk carriers left the gulf on Saturday.
All seven vessels took the northern route, which passes through a narrow channel between the two Iranian islands of Larak and Qeshm, as Tehran is tightening its control over the waterway.
At the same time, the overall level of shipping through the Strait of Hormuz remains low compared to the pre-war period.
