First Crude Shipment Since West Asia Conflict Enters Mumbai: Liberian Tanker Brings Relief To India
A Liberian-flagged oil tanker carrying over 135,000 metric tonnes of Saudi crude has safely reached Mumbai-the first such arrival since the West Asia conflict disrupted global supply chains. After navigating the tense Strait of Hormuz amid Iranian missile threats, the Shen Long Suezmax docked at Mumbai port, with crude now being pumped to the Mahul refinery. Officials say the shipment brings major relief as India battles tightening crude supplies.
