Iran Crude Oil News: After the Iran war, amid tension on Hormuz, strict sanctions and blockade, Indian ships have become a threat. According to reports, a large consignment of crude oil from Iran has reached the Indian coast. It is being told that in the last one week, India has purchased about 60 lakh barrels of oil from Iran. Its third consignment has reached the ports today.
While oil prices are skyrocketing across the world due to yet another war, India is using diplomatic channels to meet its energy needs. According to the latest information, Iranian supertanker ‘Dorna’ has reached the southern coast of India carrying 2 million barrels of crude oil. This is the third big consignment to reach India within the last seven days. Earlier, tankers named ‘Felicity’ and ‘Jaya’ have also delivered oil to Indian ports. Overall, India has so far received 60 lakh barrels of Iranian crude oil.
Oil is about to be delivered to the local refinery
According to reports, ‘Dorna’ was last seen in Iranian waters when the blockade was about to be imposed there. This tanker has again appeared near the Indian coast on the Automatic Identification System and is soon going to offload oil to the local refinery.
Let us tell you that this consignment has come at a time when Iran closed Hormuz a day after completely opening it for commercial ships. However, this consignment had passed before the closure of Hormuz. Now Iran has announced to keep strict control on the ships passing through there. Just today the news came that Iran opened fire on an Indian ship crossing Hormuz.
India bought oil from Iran after seven years
The big thing about the Iran India deal is that India is using Chinese Yuan instead of dollars to pay for this oil, so that the impact of sanctions can be avoided. India has resumed importing oil from Iran after a long gap of about seven years. Taking advantage of the temporary relaxation in American sanctions, India took this strategic step.
