A tanker loaded with oil has arrived in Japan from Azerbaijan for the first time since the beginning of the conflict surrounding Iran, Japanese public television reported.
According to “TASS,” the oil was purchased by local refining company ENEOS, one of the country’s largest gas station operators.
The tanker delivered approximately 45,000 kiloliters of oil, which is equivalent to 16 percent of Japan’s daily oil consumption.
It was noted that the purchase of oil from Azerbaijan is being carried out as part of Japan’s efforts to diversify oil supplies amid problems related to shipping through the Strait of Hormuz.
