A chemical tanker was struck by projectiles off Qatar on Oct 7, UKMTO said — about 51 nautical miles offshore, well west of the usual Strait of Hormuz attack cluster. No party has claimed responsibility. #Tankers #MaritimeSecurity

BREAKING: Two oil tankers struck by unknown projectiles in Strait of Hormuz region

UK Maritime Trade Operations said two tankers were hit Friday near Hormuz and east of Oman; crews safe, no pollution reported.

🟣🗞️ #Hormuz #Oil #Tankers #MiddleEast #Shipping

AIS-tracked tanker traffic through Hormuz averaged 1.3/day in the week to 27 Sep, 97% below baseline — many sail dark, so broader tracking shows higher flows. Turkish Straits -48%, Bab el-Mandeb -22%. #DataViz #Tankers #Shipping

https://strategicenergymap.org/charts/chokepoint-tanker-traffic/

UKMTO disclosed 3 more Hormuz tanker attacks via delayed warnings, with vessel identities, damage and casualties still unconfirmed days later — a widening gap in incident reporting even as overall traffic recovers. #Tankers #Shipping

More enquiry doesn't automatically mean higher freight. Until that activity converts into fixtures, owners can hold ideas firm, but there's little evidence yet for another leg higher.

Shipping through the Strait of Hormuz is at the centre of US-Iran negotiations, as talks explore reopening the critical energy corridor, easing maritime disruption and restoring safer passage for global trade. #Hormuz #Shipping #Tankers #Oil #MaritimeSecurity

Million barrel #Suezmax tankers are commanding exceptional rates as the #Hormuz crisis reshapes crude flows, tightens vessel supply and forces traders toward alternative shipping strategies. #NordicAmericanTankers #tankers #oil #freightrates #shipping

Dorian LPG is buying expensive VLGCs, but the timing is what makes the order interesting.

The 3 × 90,000 cbm dual-fuel VLGCs from Hanwha Ocean cost ~$345m, or $115m each, with deliveries in 2030.
