The Strait of Hormuz saw two Chinese oil tankers cross, including one carrying Iraqi crude, signaling an initial improvement in navigation after weeks of disruption.
Each tanker carried about two million barrels, with one loaded from Basra and the other from Saudi Arabia, before resuming movement after being stalled in the Gulf.
Tracking data showed both vessels moved east on April 9 and crossed via the Iranian route, reflecting special security arrangements.
The development follows a temporary ceasefire between Washington and Tehran, raising hopes for a gradual return of global oil flows.
