Kpler ship-tracking data and satellite imagery showed a 'major operational recovery' at Saudi Arabia's Yanbu terminal, with Hormuz oil flows averaging a 13.2 mb/d 7-day average through 29 Sep (about 77% of Kpler's own ~17 mb/d pre-war baseline). In 29 Sep notes, JPMorgan put regional crude shipments at 17.5 mb/d (98% of pre-war) and Hormuz flows near 13 mb/d, while Goldman Sachs put total Persian Gulf exports, including clandestine shipments, at 23.3 mb/d for September, matching 2025 averages; both banks cautioned this reflects the industry adapting to sustained risk, not improved safety. Tankers still move mainly under naval escort or shuttle arrangements rather than normal free transit, and many sail with transponders off, so independent counts remain partial.","sources":"Cyprus Mail — Prokopiou's six-week-old tanker struck in Strait of Hormuz | gCaptain — Six Vessels Hit in Strait of Hormuz Since Sunday | gCaptain (Bloomberg) — JPMorgan and Goldman See Mideast Oil Flows Near Pre-War Levels | gCaptain — Three More Tanker Attacks Surface in Delayed Hormuz Reports | CNBC — Oil prices fall as crude exports recover at Saudi Arabia's Red Sea ports (Kpler data) | Al Jazeera — Iran touts Hormuz attacks as oil flows increase despite tensions (Kpler data) | Al Jazeera — Strait of Hormuz tensions linger as Iran and US move further from a deal | Reuters via Yahoo Finance — Oil prices slide about 2% as US, Iran explore path out of war | Euronews — UAE halts all trade and financial dealings with Iran | IEA — Strait of Hormuz Factsheet (Feb 2026, based on Kpler)","source_urls":"https://cyprus-mail.com/2026/10/05/prokopious-six-week-old-tanker-struck-in-strait-of-hormuz | https://gcaptain.com/six-vessels-hit-in-strait-of-hormuz-since-sunday/ | https://gcaptain.com/jpmorgan-and-goldman-see-mideast-oil-flows-near-pre-war-levels/ | https://gcaptain.com/three-more-tanker-attacks-surface-in-delayed-hormuz-reports/ | https://www.cnbc.com/2026/09/29/oil-prices-today-brent-wti-hormuz.html | https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2026/9/28/iran-touts-hormuz-attacks-as-oil-flows-increase-despite-tensions | https://www.aljazeera.com/economy/2026/9/27/strait-of-hormuz-tensions-linger-as-iran-and-us-move-further-from-a-deal | https://finance.yahoo.com/news/oil-prices-fall-markets-look-011125829.html | https://www.euronews.com/2026/08/19/uae-halts-all-trade-and-financial-dealings-with-iran | https://iea.blob.core.windows.net/assets/c8248eba-8689-46d9-ae4b-b858b59c0f1c/StraitofHormuz2026-Factsheet.pdf"},{"asset_id":"bab-el-mandeb","asset":"Bab el-Mandeb","status":"disrupted","since":"2026-07-20","updated":"2026-10-05","confidence":"confirmed","summary":"The Houthis have enforced a 'ban' on Saudi-linked shipping since 20 July, hitting ships (Tihamah 12 Aug, Bahri VLCC off Yanbu 24 Aug) and seizing Mocha and Red Sea islands on 10-11 Sep.
