Bloomberg cited ship-tracking data showing signs of an increase in the number of supertankers transporting unauthorized oil through the Strait of Hormuz. Since May 10, four tankers each carrying 2 million barrels of crude oil have departed the Strait of Hormuz, with average daily shipments nearing 2 million barrels.

Before the Iran war, around 20 tankers of various sizes transited the waterway each day. Oil traders are now closely monitoring crude flows through the Strait of Hormuz, as disruptions to the waterway have reduced global oil supply by about 1 billion barrels.

According to maritime risk management firm Vanguard, a vessel named Hui Chuan, located northeast of Fujairah in the United Arab Emirates, has been detained by Iranian military personnel. Reports said the ship was carrying weapons stored by an insurance company.

Separately, Indian officials said that before the Hui Chuan was seized, an Indian-flagged cargo ship exploded and sank near the coast of Oman on Wed (13th), suspected to have been struck by a drone or missile.
