Bloomberg reported that since the outbreak of the Middle East war two months ago, the first liquefied natural gas (LNG) shipment appears to have transited the Strait of Hormuz and sailed out of the Persian Gulf. According to vessel-tracking data, the tanker Mubaraz loaded cargo in early March at Abu Dhabi National Oil Companys facility on Das Island in the United Arab Emirates and had been stranded inside the Persian Gulf. The vessel stopped transmitting its signal around March 31 and has recently reappeared in waters off eastern India. The current signal of the Mubaraz shows its destination as China. It is a common tactic for ships to switch off their signals while passing through the Strait of Hormuz to avoid detection, and vessel data may also be tampered with. Abu Dhabi National Oil Company, which owns the vessel, did not respond to the report.
