Two supertankers exited the Strait of Hormuz while another is making its way out, after waiting in the Gulf for more than two months with six million barrels of Middle East crude oil onboard, according to shipping data on London Stock Exchange Group (LSEG) and Kpler, Reuters reports.

The ships are among a handful of supertankers exiting the Gulf this month via a transit route that Iran has ordered ships to use.

South Korean-flagged Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) Universal Winner, carrying 2 million barrels of Kuwaiti crude loaded on March 4, is exiting the strait following the departure of two Chinese tankers on Wednesday, the data showed.
