Maritime monitoring firm TankerTrackers reports that Iran exported more than 36 million barrels of crude oil since June 15, with a similar volume currently stored on tankers in Iranian territorial waters awaiting further marketing and export. The single-source report follows a surge of Iranian oil shipments in recent days.
Maritime tracking firm TankerTrackers reported Monday that Iran exported over 36 million barrels of crude oil since June 15, with a comparable volume currently stored on floating tankers in Iranian territorial waters awaiting further export. The report, relayed via TankerTrackers’ monitoring channels, marks a continuation of the rapid acceleration in Iranian crude exports over the past week.
As The Zioneer reported on June 22 (06:46 Jerusalem), TankerTrackers had already noted the export of 36 million barrels in the preceding six days; today’s update extends that timeframe to June 15 and adds the floating storage detail. On June 19 (18:42 Jerusalem), Bloomberg reported 11 tankers carrying 20 million barrels leaving Chabahar. On June 21 (16:49 Jerusalem), President Trump stated that 19 million barrels had left the Persian Gulf the previous day as part of a Memorandum of Understanding with Iran.
The cumulative export figure — over 36 million barrels in roughly a week — is consistent with the pattern of rapidly expanding Iranian oil shipments described across multiple reports since the U.S. blockade reportedly loosened. The floating storage figure, if confirmed, suggests Iran is positioning additional supply for continued export. The report remains single-source; no official Iranian or U.S. confirmation has been provided.
