日本産LNGタンカー、ホルムズ海峡通過 イラン紛争後初

日本、フランス、オマーン船籍の船舶が木曜日以降、ホルムズ海峡を通過した。イランは米国・イスラエル関連のない友好国とみなす船舶の通行を許可する方針を反映している。日本企業三井O.S.K.ラインズのLNGタンカー「Sohar LNG」が紛争開始後初の日本関連船舶として通過した。

イランは2月末の米国・イスラエルによるイラン空爆後、ホルムズ海峡を封鎖した。この海峡は世界の石油・LNG輸送の約5分の1を担う重要航路だ。その後、イランは米国・イスラエル関連のない船舶の通行を許可すると発表した。

木曜日、フランスのCMA CGM所有コンテナ船が海峡を通過し、AIS目的地を「Owner France」に変更して国籍を示した。オマーンシッピングマネジメントの2隻の超大型原油運搬船と1隻のLNGタンカーも同日湾内から出航した。船舶はイラン領海峡通過中、AIS信号をオフにした。

三井O.S.K.ラインズは金曜日、同社共同所有のLNGタンカー「Sohar LNG」が海峡を通過したと発表。これは紛争開始後初の日本関連船舶で、初のLNG運搬船でもある。同社報道官は通過時期や交渉の有無を明らかにしなかった。同日遅く、同社のLPGタンカー「Green Sanvi」も通過した。

日本運輸省によると、金曜早朝時点で日本企業所有・運航の船舶約45隻が地域に取り残されている。石油・商品市場は交通再開の兆しに注目している。

Iran says it has closed the Strait of Hormuz as U.S. reports strikes on suspected minelayers amid rising shipping attacks

Iran has claimed the Strait of Hormuz is closed after a surge of attacks on commercial vessels since late February, while the U.S. military says it destroyed Iranian mine-laying boats near the vital oil chokepoint—an escalation that has heightened fears of prolonged disruption to energy and trade flows.

Amid the ongoing Iran conflict, where Iran has restricted Strait of Hormuz access to non-US/Israeli-linked ships, at least eight vessels—including three Iran-linked tankers—passed through on Tuesday, the first day of the US naval blockade on Iranian ports announced by President Donald Trump. Shipping data shows no interruptions, despite US claims of no breaches.

Following Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi's declaration that the Strait of Hormuz is 'completely open,' Indian-flagged vessels carrying crude oil vital to India's energy needs have begun exiting the Persian Gulf. This marks a further easing after earlier selective transits by ships without U.S. or Israeli links amid the ongoing conflict.

Around 130 container vessels linked to the Philippines remain trapped in the Strait of Hormuz due to the ongoing Middle East conflict and effective blockade, straining exports and goods flow, a shipping executive told a Senate panel on April 8. This follows recent diplomatic assurances from Iran for Philippine ships.

Iran said Friday that commercial vessels can again transit the Strait of Hormuz under routes coordinated with Iranian authorities for the duration of a ceasefire, a claim echoed by U.S. President Donald Trump. But shipping risks — including concerns over sea mines and unclear security conditions — have kept many operators cautious, even as the United States maintains a blockade on traffic to and from Iranian ports.

What began as escalating tensions in the Strait of Hormuz in mid-March 2026 has evolved into a full-scale war between the United States, Israel, and Iran, with the strait blockaded since early March. This vital chokepoint for 20% of global oil and natural gas shipments has ignited the most severe energy crisis in modern history, causing critical fuel shortages in 25 countries.

The U.S. military sank six Iranian small boats and defeated cruise missile and drone attacks in the Strait of Hormuz on Monday, allowing two American-flagged merchant ships to complete a safe transit under President Trump's 'Project Freedom' initiative. Separate incidents included an explosion on a South Korean-operated vessel and Iranian missile and drone strikes on the UAE—the first since the early April ceasefire—with the UAE reporting interceptions and casualties.
