Oil tanker HELGA, sailing under the flag of Comoros, arrived at one of the offshore oil loading terminals in Iraq’s southern Basra port on Friday and was preparing to load 2 million barrels of crude, two port sources said.
The vessel is the second tanker to reach Basra’s southern offshore terminals since the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the sources added.
