The Associated Press reported that shipping companies were still managing uncertainty around the Strait of Hormuz more than two months into the Iran war.
The article cited hundreds of vessels stuck in the Persian Gulf, elevated insurance costs, and shipowners weighing whether the route was safe enough to resume normal traffic.
For Oman Global's marine logistics and route-planning activity, the story is a reminder that vessel availability, insurance, crew safety, and alternative routing can become commercial variables almost overnight.
