TREE NEWS reports: Saudi Arabia loaded millions of barrels of oil again on Tuesday at its main Persian Gulf terminal, after rerouting its oil shipments toward the Strait of Hormuz and maintaining a high shipping pace. Satellite imagery showed a supertanker with a capacity of 12 million barrels docked at the country’s Gulf export facility on Tuesday. Sunday had already been the busiest day since at least June, with new vessels arriving and others departing since.

The signal here is logistical, not just volumetric: Saudi Arabia is sustaining an elevated loading tempo and routing flows toward Hormuz, which suggests the rerouting is being operationalized rather than treated as a one-off. That matters most for buyers dependent on Gulf crude and for freight and insurance markets that price Hormuz transit risk. Whether the busiest-day pace persists, and whether the supertanker's presence reflects a durable shift in export logistics or a temporary drawdown, is the open question worth watching.
