U.S. Energy Secretary Wright said the Trump administration is pushing to reclassify some sanctioned tankers via an approval process so they can operate as compliant vessels. Investors plan to buy idle tankers and refurbish them to transport crude not subject to sanctions. Wright emphasized this is not a lift of sanctions on ships carrying Russian, Iranian or other sanctioned crude; the aim is to bring those vessels into legal operation and ensure they no longer transport sanctioned oil. He estimated the global sanctioned shadow fleet at about 1,600 vessels and said the plan could add tens or even hundreds of legally operating tankers.
