Although the tanker in the photo is not LPG SEVAN (9177806), but a NITC tanker carrying crude oil, the LPG SEVAN was only placed under US sanctions yesterday (2026-04-24). She recently loaded in Iran, and delivers frequently to Bangladesh as well as the Houthis in Yemen.
U.S. Central Command@CENTCOM

Yesterday, M/V Sevan was among 19 “shadow fleet” vessels sanctioned by the U.S. Department of Treasury for activities related to transporting billions of dollars worth of Iranian energy, oil and gas products, including propane and butane, to foreign markets. Earlier today, Sevan was intercepted in the Arabian Sea by a U.S. Navy helicopter from guided-missile destroyer USS Pinckney (DDG 91), and the merchant vessel is currently complying with U.S. military direction to turn back to Iran under escort. U.S. forces continue to enforce U.S. sanctions and fully implement the blockade against ships entering or departing Iranian ports. 37 vessels have been redirected since the start of the blockade.

@TankerTrackers This is my deaf kitty Maverick. He came to live with us after his mama got run over and the dairy farmer did not want the same fate for him. His vet knew we were an indoor household. My hubs even built a kitty condo 6x6x20!

That looks a lot like NITC’s HERBY (9362059). She was heading home from the Riau archipelago after having transferred her two million barrels of Iranian crude oil cargo via an STS transfer. She last pinged over AIS on 2026-04-12 off the SW coast of India as she was heading back towards Iran. It takes about a week to reach Iran from there. This took twice as long due to the blockade.

@MerruX Looks can be deceiving when it comes to the floating rooftop storage tanks under SAR; at least with this filter.

There were three VLCC supertankers loading crude oil at Kharg Island yesterday (2026-04-24). That's 6 million barrels. Basing on their movements, we believe that two of these VLCC's are Iranian-flagged while the third is a freelancer. SAR imagery by ESA Copernicus Sentinel-1 #OOTT #IranWar #Iran

@TankerTrackers @CENTCOM yes, but I registered it at Larak when sailing. So I think it is important to stick to what can be documented, hence Larak and not Bandar Abbas. But I am surprised that they sail freely where Iran stops other vessels.

@TankerTrackers Thanks for your ongoing reporting. I know it can’t be easy doing that and just getting a lot of politics/abuse when people don’t want to hear the news/truth. Obv this particular one is easy as you and centcom concur!

This is NASHA, it is a very old VLCC tanker that Iran has in the Gulf and occasionally uses as floating storage. It is getting a tremendous amount of attention because it is moving (very slowly) toward Kharg Island, likely to be filled up. Does this mean Iran is about to shut-in production? I don't think so. There are (by my count) at least a dozen VLCCs or other tankers ballasting their way toward the Gulf. There are two more empty tankers in the Gulf that could also draw from Kharg. Iran has had success loading and exporting despite the blockade. It's storage is not close to being maxed out. Also, if NIOC does proceed with shut-ins, I don't think it would be as calamitous as some have suggested. They successfully shut-in in 2013-2015 and 2019-2021, in both instances reversing within a few years.

Today, Treasury’s Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) sanctioned Hengli Petrochemical (Dalian) Refinery Co., Ltd., a China-based independent teapot refinery. China-based teapot refineries continue to play a vital role in sustaining Iran’s oil economy, and Hengli Petrochemical is one of Iran’s largest customers, having purchased billions of dollars’ worth of Iranian petroleum. Additionally today, OFAC is targeting around 40 shipping firms and vessels associated with Iran’s shadow fleet. Economic Fury continues to disrupt Tehran’s ability to generate the revenue that enables the regime’s reckless terrorist activities.

🇮🇷🇺🇸 Iran just reactivated a 30-year-old retired supertanker because it's running out of places to put oil. Kharg handles 90% of Iran's crude exports, but the U.S. blockade collapsed those exports to near zero while upstream production kept running. Iran had roughly 12 days of spare storage capacity when the blockade began on April 13. That window closes this week. The tanker's 2 million barrels buys about 48 hours. The bigger problem is what happens if the wells shut in. Estimates put permanent production capacity loss at 300,000 to 500,000 barrels per day if the current trajectory holds. That damage doesn't reverse when the blockade lifts. Iran just reactivated a floating corpse and asked it to buy 2 days. Source: @TankerTrackers, @shanaka86

🇺🇸🇮🇷 U.S. B-52H bombers are still in the UK, fully armed, as the ceasefire holds. Ready to go in a moment, they can carry up to 70,000 lbs of weapons, including Joint Direct Attack Munitions (JDAMs), air-launched cruise missiles, and gravity bombs.

@MamaDailyDairy The Iranian tankers carrying Iranian oil which are being redirected back are not seized. They're only ordered to return to Iran. The two actual seizures we saw in the past couple of days were of non-Iranian tankers carrying Iranian oil. They're flying fake flags. Thanks

@TankerTrackers Any idea why the US is seizing Iranian oil tankers & sometimes redirecting them back to their original port? 🫩 Also, do you think there’s an increase in Chinese or other foreign tankers🫩 #Iran is still selling a lot of oil through alternative partners & routes 🫩 #IranWar‌

Although it's not their latest locations, these are the latest satellite imagery sightings we have made of the Iranian-flagged tankers carrying crude oil. The US Navy went down to the Indian Ocean to redirect a couple of them back to Iran.
