Maritime traffic remains under pressure #MarineTraffic data shows commercial shipping continuing through both of the Middle East's critical maritime chokepoints, although traffic patterns reflect growing operational caution. On 21 July, 9 verified vessels transited the Strait of Hormuz, compared with 29 crossings through Bab el Mandeb. Over 20 to... 21 July, Hormuz recorded 22 crossings, with 16 using the Iranian Unilateral Scheme, while Bab el Mandeb handled 73 crossings. Vessel behaviour is also shifting, with four verified U turns near the Gulf of Aden following heightened security threats. Combined with 61 confirmed maritime incidents reported by the IMO, the data suggests that geopolitical risk is increasingly influencing routing decisions, even as commercial traffic continues.show more

Transit patterns diverge #MarineTraffic data highlights diverging patterns across two of the world's most strategically important maritime chokepoints. Between 24 and 26 July, the Strait of Hormuz recorded 29 verified crossings, including 21 vessels exiting the Middle East Gulf and 8 entering. Routing remained evenly split, with 14 transits using the Iranian Unilateral Scheme, 14 classified as Route Undetermined, and one using the Hormuz Traffic Separation Scheme. By comparison, Bab el-Mandeb recorded 100 verified crossings, with 51 vessels entering the Red Sea and 49 exiting. Ninety vessels followed the Traffic Separation Scheme, while 10 completed dark transits. Several vessels that had previously delayed or reversed course later completed their crossings, suggesting operators are continuing to assess risk dynamically rather than avoiding the route altogether.

Strait Traffic remains resilient #MarineTraffic data recorded 108 verified vessel transits through the Strait of Hormuz between 3 and 5 July, with 43 crossings on 3 July, 34 on 4 July and 31 on 5 July. Traffic was broadly balanced by direction, with 60 East-to-West crossings and 48 West-to-East crossings. Route selection remained fragmented, with 44 vessels using the Iranian Route, 30 using the Omani Route, 10 following the IMO Route and 24 classified as Dark or Unknown. The transits covered a wide range of vessel types, including tankers, container ships, bulk carriers and gas carriers, underscoring that commercial shipping continues to move through the Strait while operators maintain diversified routing strategies amid ongoing geopolitical and maritime security risks.

Traffic diverges at key chokepoints Maritime traffic continues to navigate two strategically vital chokepoints, but the risk profile is evolving differently across each. The Strait of Hormuz recorded just 29 verified crossings between 24 and 26 July, with routing uncertainty persisting. Bab el-Mandeb, meanwhile, saw 100 verified crossings and largely stable daily activity, despite ongoing regional security concerns. Several vessels that had previously reversed course later completed their transits, indicating that operators are increasingly making route decisions based on real time risk assessments rather than broad avoidance. With no sign of a lasting regional stabilisation, vessel behaviour may prove a more important indicator than headline transit volumes. Stay ahead of the market with #Kpler Insight:

Traffic rises, risks persist #MarineTraffic data recorded 41 verified crossings through the monitored Strait of Hormuz zone on 7 July, up from 36 the previous day. Commercial west to east movements continued to lead activity, while laden crude, dry bulk and LPG voyages remained prominent. However, routing patterns reflected continued uncertainty, with increased use of IMO routes alongside a high share of Dark or Unknown transits and declining use of the Omani route. The security environment also deteriorated following two newly confirmed tanker incidents near Oman, while the introduction of OFAC General License X1 tightened the compliance landscape for Iranian related trade. The combination of operational risk and regulatory pressure suggests confidence remains measured despite stronger traffic volumes.

March crossings through Strait of Hormuz led by liquid tankers According to #MarineTraffic and Kpler data, a total of 220 vessels transited the Strait of Hormuz during March across the dry bulk, liquids, LPG and LNG segments. Liquid tankers accounted for 111 crossings, or 51% of the total, followed by 82 dry bulk vessels (37%) and 27 LPG carriers (12%). No LNG crossings were recorded in March. Traffic remained skewed toward west-to-east movements out of the Gulf, which made up 149 crossings, or 68% of the monthly total. East-to-west transits into the Gulf accounted for 71 crossings, or 32%, highlighting an uneven flow pattern through one of the world’s most critical maritime chokepoints.

Strait of Hormuz transit and risk monitor Transit activity in the Strait of Hormuz strengthened over the weekend, with crossings reaching 10 on Saturday and 11 on Sunday, according to #MarineTraffic data. Sanctioned vessels accounted for almost half of Sunday’s movements, highlighting a shift in traffic composition alongside rising volumes. No verified physical attacks or incidents during this period, despite elevated geopolitical rhetoric. While this suggests near term operational stability, evolving political developments may still shape vessel behaviour and risk exposure in the days ahead. Read the latest analysis by Dimitris Ampatzidis, Kpler Senior Risk & Compliance Analyst: Here’s a playback of vessel activity in the Strait of Hormuz over the past two days.

Hormuz traffic shows recovery Verified Strait of Hormuz crossings reached 25 on 18 June, marking a notable increase in daily maritime activity. Traffic was evenly distributed across both directions, with most vessels following established Iranian route patterns. Five sanctioned vessels were recorded among the crossings, while no additional physical attacks have been confirmed since 10 May. The latest figures coincide with discussions surrounding the implementation phase of the US-Iran 60 day memorandum framework, which aims to preserve the ceasefire, support navigation through the Strait and facilitate broader negotiations. While this d/d uptick points to improving operating conditions, unresolved implementation details and continued dark crossings indicate a continued elevated degree of caution with ship operators.

Hormuz recovery faces fresh pressure Traffic through the monitored Strait of Hormuz zone strengthened on 7 July, with 41 verified crossings compared with 36 the previous day. Commercial west to east movements continued to dominate, while sanctioned vessel activity eased and laden crude, dry bulk and #LPG voyages remained significant. However, the operating picture became more complex. Use of the Iranian route declined as IMO routing recovered, but elevated Dark or Unknown movements highlighted uneven confidence across the market. The backdrop also deteriorated after two newly confirmed tanker incidents near Oman and OFAC’s replacement of General License X with GLX1, tightening the sanctions framework for Iranian related trade. The focus is now shifting from traffic recovery towards security, compliance and route risk management. Stay ahead of the market with #Kpler Insight:

48 Hours in 60 Seconds Commercial shipping continues to transit the Strait of Hormuz, with the majority of vessels visible via using the Iranian traffic separation scheme. Use of the U.S.-supported route through Omani waters continues, but remains intermittent rather than the preferred route for most traffic. As always, some transits are not visible due to vessels operating with their AIS transponders switched off, meaning actual traffic is likely higher than shown.

🇺🇸 🇮🇷 DANGER: ARE THE HOUTHIS A SERIOUS RISK TO OIL TRAFFIC IN THE RED SEA?! They've already proven they are. Yemen's Iranian - backed Houthis declared a maritime embargo on Saudi Arabia. In two weeks, Saudi crude loadings through the Bab el - Mandeb collapsed 36% - from 9.5 million to 6.1 million barrels daily. They're already attacking tankers. Saudi Arabia was using the Red Sea as an escape route because Iran blocked Hormuz. Seventy percent of their crude exports now move through this strait. Two tanker attacks forced them to halt all shipments temporarily. The Bab el - Mandeb carries 12% of global maritime trade. A full Houthi closure cuts global oil supply by 7%. Combined with the Hormuz blockade, that's a quarter of global oil and gas at risk. This is Iran squeezing two chokepoints at once. Can we protect the Strait of Hormuz and the Red Sea?

Verified crossings still at historic lows As of 17 June, Kpler observed six verified crossings across the monitored zone. Traffic was weighted east to west, and most vessels followed established Iranian coastal passage routes. One sanctioned vessel, Ostria, was identified transiting east to west in ballast. No additional physical attacks have been confirmed since 10 May, leaving the maritime risk picture broadly unchanged. The latest movements come as US-Iran discussions continue around a proposed 60 day memorandum intended to support maritime security and preserve the current ceasefire framework. While transit activity continues, relatively low crossing volumes indicate that shipping patterns remain cautious rather than fully restored. Stay ahead of the market with #Kpler Insight:

The Strait of #Hormuz saw continued directional imbalance on 29 April, with all 12 verified crossings travelling west to east and no eastbound return traffic recorded, according to #Kpler data. Transit volumes rose slightly from the previous day, suggesting stable but gradually strengthening activity, though still below peaks earlier in the month. Higher risk participation remained limited, with two sanctioned vessels and one shadow ballast transit. Most movements involved general cargo, container ships and bulk carriers, with flows focused on dry commodities such as steel, cement and clinker, underscoring a shift away from tanker led trade. Ηere's the #MarineTraffic playback of the time based on the #AIS data received from the vessels.

Strait of Hormuz closure risk rises amid escalating tensions Kpler data shows that 34% of all seaborne-traded oil has transited the Strait of Hormuz so far this year. The strait last effectively closed during the Iran-Iraq “Tanker War” in 1984 and remains a critical chokepoint for global oil and gas flows. Tensions are rising following Israeli strikes on Iran’s Natanz nuclear facility and the deaths of senior IRGC officials, increasing the risk of wider disruption in the Gulf. If flows were interrupted, few immediate alternatives exist for the oil that moves through the strait—heightening risk for global energy markets. Yet MarineTraffic data shows no significant change in commercial shipping patterns: ▪️1,948 commercial vessels currently in the region ▪️97 arrivals and 85 departures in the past 24 hours ▪️Tankers: 17 entered, 17 departed; 116 tankers currently in the area In fast-moving situations like this, visibility into vessel movements helps stakeholders respond quickly as conditions evolve. #marinetraffic

Hormuz uptick remains fragile Strait of Hormuz crossings rebounded sharply over 19–21 June, with 71 confirmed transits and a weekend peak of 35 on 20 June, supported by the blockade lift and renewed free-passage signals. Commercial crossings recovered with AIS transponder ons, but volumes remain below pre-crisis norms and caution is still clear: many vessels continue using Iranian and Dark routes while demining remains incomplete. With no new physical attacks since 10 June but diplomacy still fragile, the reopening is delivering a recovery, though likely an uneven one. Stay ahead of the market with #Kpler Insight:

Hormuz traffic sees a sharp d/d uptick Confirmed Strait of Hormuz crossings rose to 70 on 24 June, up 105% day on day, as demining efforts advanced and operators increasingly used the Omani route. Commercial traffic accounted for most activity, with 53 transits, while low-risk vessels dominated the day’s profile. The US-Iran MoU framework and apparent lifting of the US blockade appear to have supported a short-term confidence boost, although IRGC warnings against use of the Omani route could create a new source of contention. IMO-route use picked up slightly, but continued Dark routing, incomplete demining and unresolved issues over inspections, sanctions and future Strait governance mean the rebound is not yet a confirmed return to pre-crisis conditions.

#Update: Two 🇺🇸 V-22 Ospreys and a C-130J Super Hercules arrived in Berbera, underscoring the strategic value of Somaliland’s airbase and port near the Bab el-Mandeb choke-point linking the Red Sea to the Indian Ocean. With hundreds of ships transiting the corridor monthly and over 100 Houthi attacks on merchant vessels recorded in late 2023–early 2024, maritime security has become critical. Against this backdrop, Somaliland is finalising talks with Israel, the United States and the UAE to lease Berbera’s airport and port to help safeguard shipping along the Gulf of Aden.

President Trump said Iran agreed that it will “never have a nuclear weapon” during his visit to a Pennsylvania's Mack Truck facility on Tuesday. He also said “19 million barrels of oil flowed out of the Strait of Hormuz” on Monday, which he said is “the most oil in the history of the strait.” Monday was the busiest day for transits of the Strait of Hormuz since the war began, with 35 commercial vessels crossing the waterway, according to data from the maritime tracking firm Kpler. That is still only about a third of pre-war traffic levels, but it likely does not include some ships that transited the strait with their location transponders switched off.

Iran declared the Strait of Hormuz an inviolable "red line" on Thursday, warning that any U.S. strikes on Iranian infrastructure, including the power plants and bridges President Donald J. Trump has threatened to target, would trigger retaliatory strikes against critical infrastructure across the Gulf region. The warning comes after four consecutive days of strikes against Iranian military targets and has reimposed a naval blockade of Iranian ports, with Washington stating the objective is to restore freedom of navigation through the Strait of Hormuz following repeated Iranian attacks on commercial shipping. Iranian officials maintained that control of the Strait is not dependent on coastal bases or islands, insisting Tehran retains the ability to control the waterway from across its territory. They also reiterated that reopening the Strait requires U.S. compliance with the previously signed memorandum of understanding and acceptance of Iranian regulations governing vessel transits. The rhetoric comes amid a rapidly widening regional conflict, with Iran launching missile and drone attacks against U.S. forces and partners in Kuwait, Jordan, and Bahrain, while analysts continue to warn that Tehran could also seek to pressure global trade by expanding the confrontation to the Bab al-Mandeb Strait through its Houthi allies in Yemen.
