Second Japan-linked crude oil tanker passes through Strait of Hormuz, LSEG data shows

TOKYO: A Panama-flagged crude oil tanker managed by Japanese refining group Eneos has passed through the Strait of Hormuz, ship-tracking data from LSEG showed on Thursday, the second instance of such a Japan-linked ship making it through. Before the US-Israeli war on Iran largely disrupted oil supplies via the Strait of Hormuz, Japan relied on the ‌Gulf for about ‌95 percent of its oil imports. The Eneos-managed tanker ‌is ⁠carrying 1.2 million ⁠barrels of Kuwait crude and 700,000 barrels of Emirati Das Blend oil loaded in late February, Kpler data showed.
