Tokyo, April 4 (Jiji Press)–A liquefied petroleum gas carrier affiliated with Mitsui O.S.K. Lines Ltd. has become the second Japan-linked vessel that crossed the Strait of Hormuz under a de facto blockade, it was learned Saturday. The ship is the Indian-flagged LPG tanker Green Sanvi, owned by an Indian affiliate of Mitsui O.S.K., according to the Japanese company. The vessel is on its way to India after leaving the Persian Gulf. “We’ve confirmed the safety of the crew, cargo and hull,” a Mitsui O.S.K. official said. The LPG tanker was among the 45 Japan-linked vessels stranded in the Persian Gulf due to the blockade of the key oil transit chokepoint. On Friday, it turned out that a liquefied natural gas ship jointly owned by Mitsui O.S.K. Lines and an Omani company, which was also among the 45 ships, passed through the strait.
