Summary
Kpler data show Strait of Hormuz traffic has dropped to its lowest since May, with commodity vessel crossings averaging 10 a day over the past 10 days.
That slide followed US and Iranian strikes on tankers, with flows falling from more than 15 vessels on Friday to nearly 13 on Saturday.
Only two vessels transited the strait on Saturday and six on Sunday, and most used the Iranian route.
Sunday traffic included one very large crude carrier entering the strait, while no VLCC has exited since Wednesday and one Saudi-loaded products tanker was turned back.
