Iranian crude oil tankers exit U.S. blockade zone, says tracking site

Iranian crude oil tankers have exited a U.S. blockade zone in the Gulf, reported TankerTrackers on Wednesday.

The TankerTrackers website, a maritime intelligence company that tracks the crude oil trade, marked Iran’s “first crude oil exports in two months,” citing digital tracking data corroborated by satellite imagery.

“According to AIS data which we corroborated yesterday (2026-06-15) by satellite imagery, at least two National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) VLCC supertankers named DIONA (9569695) and HERO2 (9362073)” have exited the perimeter carrying “a combined total of 3.8 million barrels of Iranian crude oil between them,” it said on the social media platform X.
