A Chinese tanker, which has been sanctioned by the United States, successfully navigated the Strait of Hormuz on Tuesday, marking a notable event as it was the first vessel to depart from the Gulf since a blockade was established at this critical maritime passage, as reported by Reuters, referencing shipping analytics. <\/p>\n
The tanker, named Rich Starry, is identified as a medium-range vessel with a capacity of approximately 250,000 barrels of methanol, which it loaded at Hamriyah in the United Arab Emirates. <\/p>\n
This sanction was enforced against both the tanker and its owner, Shanghai Xuanrun Shipping Co Ltd, due to their transactions with Iran. <\/p>\n
Additionally, another sanctioned tanker, Murlikishan, is also making its way into the Strait of Hormuz on the same day, according to data from LSEG. This smaller handysize tanker is expected to load fuel oil in Iraq on April 16. <\/p>\n
