About 1 million barrels of Iraqi crude on a Suezmax tanker exited the Persian Gulf via a northerly route through Iranian waters on Sunday, according to Bloomberg vessel-tracking. The shipment size (≈1m bbl) is modest relative to global flows but the routing through Iranian waters elevates regional transit and geopolitical risk. Monitor for any follow-up on sanctions, inspections or route changes that could affect seaborne export patterns.
