Date and timeDirectionLaneEst. cargo (M bbl)Gap (h)
10 Oct 2026, 13:30 UTC Outbound out of the Gulf Iran lane - 10.0
30 Sep 2026, 07:31 UTC Inbound into the Gulf Iran lane - 8.0

Outbound means from the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman. The lane is the side of the strait the ship kept to: the Oman lane along Musandam or the Iran lane near the Iranian islands (see the map). Estimated cargo is deadweight × 95% × 7.33 barrels per tonne, for outbound oil tankers only. The gap is the hours between the last position on one side and the first on the other; a long gap means the ship was dark or out of coverage while it crossed.
