What happened
According to maritime intelligence, Iran has managed to export liquefied petroleum gas and jet fuel even while a U.S. naval blockade has brought its crude exports to a virtual standstill. At least eight gas tankers carrying Iranian LPG have left the Gulf of Oman since mid-July. Additionally, one tanker carrying Iranian jet fuel was tracked reaching Myanmar in September.
Why it matters
These shipments provide evidence of petroleum products passing through a blockade that has halted Iranian crude exports. While the shipments represent only a fraction of Iran's former energy exports, they highlight methods Tehran is using to conceal cargoes among ship-to-ship transfers.
