Sinokor-owned ships reportedly carried more crude through Hormuz than the next three owners’ vessels combined in September 2026

Ships owned by South Korea’s Sinokor Group carried an estimated 105.6 million barrels of crude through Hormuz in September 2026, versus 97.3 million for the next three owners combined, Bloomberg calculated. Its comparison counts owners, not vessel operators. In its Oct. 23 report, Bloomberg described Sinokor as among the most active owners in Gulf-to-Oman shuttle trips as Gulf crude exports recovered toward pre-war levels.
