The SoH from 5 hours ago. The Omani corridor is completely quiet, with only 2 vessels spotted along the Iranian corridor. The strait is effectively shut down.
Cross-referencing multiple data feeds suggests maintaining previous STS run rates is simply off the table now. Need to watch like a hawk to see if this feeds directly into a loading slowdown. A few warning signs are already flashing.
Btw right as I type this, MR tanker NEW FUTURE(IMO: 9379313) made a brave attempt to run the Strait with AIS turned on, only to chicken out and do a U-turn.
