Iran loaded 2mln bbls of crude from the Jask export terminal, marking a first since the escalation of the US-Iran conflict and a bypass of the Strait of Hormuz closure, via Kpler's Bakr.

Iran's loading of 2 million barrels of crude from the Jask export terminal signals a significant development in navigating geopolitical tensions that have disrupted traditional shipping routes, particularly the Strait of Hormuz. This move could indicate Iran's growing capacity to circumvent sanctions and maintain its oil exports, potentially impacting global oil supply dynamics and prices in the short term as the market assesses the implications for risk premium in oil assets.
