Another Two India-Bound LPG Tankers Exit Gulf Through Hormuz

Two more India-bound tankers carrying liquefied petroleum gas have exited the Persian Gulf via the Strait of Hormuz, adding to the trickle of vessels making it through the narrow waterway.

The India-flagged BW Tyr and BW Elm, laden with cargoes of the cooking fuel, last indicated their position past the northern tip of the Omani peninsula, according to vessel-tracking data compiled by Bloomberg. Throughout the transit, both used their transponders to signal they had Indian ownership and Indian crew, in what has become a standard security measure.
