波斯湾海峡管理局表示,将对属于新韩海运的油轮采取“法律行动”,该公司是全球最大的油轮拥有者,近几周已从霍尔木兹海峡运出数百万桶石油。
Persian Gulf Strait Authority said it would take “legal action” against tankers belonging to Sinokor, the world’s biggest oil tanker owner that has carried millions of barrels out of the Strait of Hormuz in recent weeks.
“新韩海运公司的船只在过去3个月中违规通过次数最多,迄今已对其中至少7艘采取了适当的执法行动,”波斯湾海峡管理局在社交媒体帖子中称,但未具体说明这些行动是什么。
“The vessels belonging to Sinokor Shipping Company have committed the highest number of crossing violations over the past 3 months, and so far, appropriate enforcement actions have been taken against at least 7 of them,” the PGSA said in a social media post, without specifying what those actions were.
伊朗今年早些时候设立波斯湾海峡管理局,作为通过霍尔木兹海峡过境的联络点。此后,该机构发布了一份名单,列出其称违反过境规则的船只。
Iran established the PGSA earlier this year as a point of contact for transits through Hormuz. It has since published a list of vessels that it says have violated its rules for crossing the waterway.
与此同时,新韩海运是全球最大的超大型油轮拥有者,已成为维持全球石油运输的关键环节,通过抢占将石油从霍尔木兹海峡运出的利润丰厚贸易发挥作用。根据情报公司和海事数据库的数据,该公司船只占上个月从霍尔木兹海峡流出的所有原油的近40%,超过排名接下来三大参与者的总和。
Meanwhile Sinokor is the world’s largest owner of supertankers and has emerged as a vital cog in keeping the world’s oil moving, by pouncing on the lucrative trade of getting barrels out of Hormuz. The company’s ships accounted for nearly 40% of all the crude oil that flowed out from the Strait of Hormuz last month, more than the next three biggest players combined, according to data from intelligence firms and maritime databases.
自伊朗战争爆发以来,围绕世界最重要的能源咽喉要道的控制权一直在争夺。虽然冲突爆发初期海峡基本关闭,但此后过境霍尔木兹海峡的石油量持续增加,大多数追踪机构现在看到中东地区的总出货量已恢复到战前水平。
Since the Iran war began, there’s been a tussle for control of the world’s most important energy chokepoint. While it was largely shut in the immediate aftermath of the conflict, there’s been a persistent increase in the amount of oil transiting Hormuz since, and most trackers now see total shipments from the Middle East around pre-war levels.
“特此警告所有货主、利益相关方和保险服务提供商,自11月1日起将对该公司所有船只采取法律行动,”波斯湾海峡管理局在帖子中称。新韩海运未立即回应置评请求。
“All cargo owners, stakeholders, and insurance service providers are hereby warned that as of November 1, legal action will be taken against all vessels of this company,” the PGSA said in its post. Sinokor didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
