Reuters report on an Iranian supertanker with two million barrels of oil is heading to Asia after sitting in Iranian waters for months, the first vessel storing crude offshore to sail after a nuclear deal this week
- the ship had been used for floating storage since December 12, a tanker tracking source said
- "This is the first tanker to come off floating storage," the source said.
- It is unclear whether the estimated 2 million-barrel cargo had been sold, or if so whether the deal occurred after this week's agreement
- But it is a milestone following a months-long build-up of idling crude tankers holding up to 50 million barrels of oil, equal to over a month's worth of Iran's exports
