According to Jin10, only nine commodity vessels passed through the Strait of Hormuz on Thursday, with eight of them leaving the waterway, while the 10-day average transit volume was 18. The report said the nine tankers that passed through the strait on Thursday included one very large crude carrier, several Panamax and post-Panamax tankers, some small short-haul and medium-haul tankers, and one ballast very large gas carrier. Windward reported that five tankers entered the Strait of Hormuz on Wednesday, including one crude carrier, several product tankers, and one liquefied natural gas carrier. Against the backdrop of renewed hostilities this month, shipowners and energy exporters have become more cautious about sailing through the Strait of Hormuz.
