Second Saudi phosphates cargo transits Hormuz

The Mdl Toofan, which loaded 55,000t of MAP at Ras Al-Khair in late April, crossed the strait of Hormuz on 9-10 May, according to vessel tracking data from Kpler.

The MAP is scheduled to arrive at Rio Grande, Brazil, on 5 June.

This is the second phosphates cargo to cross the strait since the start of the US-Iran war at the end of February. Eight other vessels carrying phosphates loaded at Ras Al-Khair remain in the Gulf.
