According to Platts, three Bahrain-owned VLCC-owned VLCC tankers, Khuzuma and TI Hawtah, changed their route over the past 24 hours and are standing in the seaport of Solaleh, southwest of Oman.
Saudi Arabia’s state-run oil company temporarily stopped shipping oil through the Strait of Bab Al-Hamad after July 25 announcing two Saudi tankers hijacked by Yemen. The Strait is considered a key waterway for the oil trade. According to the US Energy Information Administration, about 4.8 million barrels per day of crude oil and petroleum products have crossed the strait in 2016. Most of Europe’s oil imports from the Middle East on its way to the Sumed or Suez Canal runs through the Bab Al Mandab Strait.
These tankers are waiting to wait until Aramco canceled their ban in the next few days. The S & P Global Plots data flow software shows that two other Bahri tankers shut off their transmitters from July 25th and 23rd, and their location has not been updated via the automatic identification system.
The Hilwah tanker, who had no time, crossed the Strait on Sunday, heading for Ross Tenor on the east coast of Saudi Arabia. It is likely that the tanker has been allowed to move on this route because of unplanned supplies.
The Khafij tanker belonging to Bahri, which appears to be a carrier vehicle from the eastern coast of Saudi Arabia, is on its way to the Bab Al Mandab Strait. It is unclear whether the tanker is allowed to continue its journey.
