Hormone Strait, Red Sea Shipping threat, height, naval set

The largest organization of direct members in the world for ship owners, antiquities, ship thickness, and agents warn that although it is unclear how Iran will respond to Saturday on Saturday US attack In Iranian nuclear facilities, the threat of commercial charging in the waters surrounding Al Arabiya increased.

“The Houthi threat against shipping increased in the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden as well,” said Jacob Larsen, head of security in Pimco, who represents international ships. “The Houthis are now threatening commercial ships by belonging to Israel or the United States, but attacks against commercial ships cannot be excluded with other affiliations.”

Larsen said that the American warships and commercial ships of Israel or the United States are expected to be the favorite targets of the Iranians.

In an e -mail to CNBC, a HaPag Lloyd spokesman told CNBC, “We are still crossing Hormuz Street. The alert level is high, and things may change by the hour.”

On Friday, MAERSK Logistical Service Provider announced that he is temporarily suspended port calls to the largest container port in Israel, Haifa. The $ 4.2 billion shipping facility in Haifa, owned by Adani Group, was a target of Iranian missiles but did not suffer from any harm. Last week, Jugshinder “Robbie”, Adani’s financial director, published that the wrong information that the port was burning from a strike on Iranian social media.

Larsen warned against Bimco that Iran was to try to disrupt a wider commercial charging in the Strait of Hormuz through attacks on commercial ships. He said that anti -aircraft or drones from both air -mobile species and the surface can be used in these attacks..

Larsen said: “The status of marine mines will constitute another serious development, but Iran’s intention to do so is doubtful due to the risks to Iran’s commercial ships and the risk of the environmental disaster if the ship is damaged.”

The Strait of Hermoz, which connects the Persian Gulf to the Arabian Sea, is recognized as one of The most important oil selection points in the world. The inability of the oil to pass the hormonal strait, even temporarily, can RATCHET Up Global Energy PricesRaising the costs of shipping and creating a great delay in the offer. In 2023, the oil flows through the waterway middle 20.9 million barrels per day, according to the US Energy Information Department, which represents about 20 % of global petroleum fluid consumption.

Larsen said: “Given the Iranian threat to the American military bases in the region, the availability of warships to protect commercial shipping may be limited, especially for commercial ships without any affiliation with the United States or Israel,” Larsen said.

The Strait of Hormuz deals with less than 4 % of the global container trade, but the Ports of Jebel Ali and Khor Vakan are important intermediate points for global charging networks in the region.

The majority of the sizes of goods from these ports are heading to Dubai, which has become a center for freight movement with nutrition services in the Persian Gulf, South Asia and East Africa.

The conflict in the region also sparked ocean charging rates to increase Shanghai to Jebel Ali, the largest port in the Persian Gulf.

XENETA Shipping Intelligence Company said the average category prices have increased by 55 % months, before the escalation of the conflict between Israel and Iran. The rates are now $ 2,761 per fee (FEU), which is a standard unit to measure the capacity of containers and charging.

On the side of the carrier, the immediate rates of large raw carrier trips (VLCC) increased between the Middle East and China by 154 % week. LR2 tankers (LR2) in the Middle East and Japan increased by 148 %, and highly large gas carrier rates (VLGC) increased by 33 %.

The reason behind the increase in prices includes additional expenses on security measures, the high prices of fuel in the hideouts, and the costs of fuel where ships use more fuel due to sailing faster through high -risk areas.

McClinan, the largest marine insurance broker in the world, pointed out that Hull insurance rates and ships crossing the hormones straight increased by more than 60 %.

In light of the latest wave of defense measures, BIMCO encourages the owners of ships to review their security risk assessments and carefully consider mitigation measures.

“The commercial ships in the region should consider reducing their exposure to Iran, for example, by guiding the Iranian coast,” Larsen said. “We also recommend maintaining close contact with the naval forces in the region through the UK maritime trade operations, maintaining strong vigilance and increasing monitoring, reporting scenes and suspicious events to UKMTO, and increasing ships to accommodate damage by ensuring the safety of water fall and the organization’s damage to damage, including the ability to shoot.”

“Bimco does not recommend that ship owners completely move away from the conflict zone. The owner of this decision must take this decision, taking into account all factors related to evaluating security risks, for example, threats, vulnerabilities in the ship, the level of risk acceptance in the sailors, the ship owner, and the shipping owner.”
