New Explorer approaches strait
The Hong Kong-owned supertanker New Explorer sailed toward Bab el-Mandeb with Saudi crude, following two earlier Chinese tankers that had safely crossed.
Torm Innovation reverses course
The Denmark-owned products tanker Torm Innovation u-turned in the Red Sea after loading at Yanbu, opting for the northern Suez Canal route rather than risk the Houthi-controlled bottleneck.
Merbabu dark transit
The Greek-owned tanker Merbabu exited Bab el-Mandeb with its AIS transponder off, reappearing in the Arabian Sea late Thursday while loaded with Saudi crude bound for India.
Houthi blockade declared
The Iran-backed group announced a maritime blockade targeting Saudi Arabia, escalating threats against commercial shipping in the Red Sea.
A Greek-owned tanker carrying Saudi crude exited the Red Sea with its transponder off after Houthi militants declared a blockade, while a Chinese vessel openly headed into the strait. The divergence highlights a splintering in oil logistics where Western shipowners increasingly avoid the chokepoint, forcing supply planners to weigh soaring insurance costs against detour delays around Africa.
