Bloomberg confirms that another 2 Supertankers laden with Saudi Oil were struck and immobilized last night while transiting the Strait of Hormuz under US escort.

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2026-09-01/two-oil-supertankers-hit-by-projectiles-in-hormuz-marisks-says

>Two oil supertankers were struck by unknown projectiles in quick succession while transiting the Persian Gulf’s Strait of Hormuz chokepoint, maritime security consultant Marisks said. The very large crude carrier Sidr, run by Saudi Arabia’s Bahri shipping company, was hit while sailing northeast of Khasab, Oman, the consultant said. The Senegal Prosperity, operated by Sinokor, was struck by three projectiles while traveling east of the same country, it said. Both were exiting the Persian Gulf, according to Marisks.

Saudi-owned VLCC Oil Tanker "SIDR" suddenly switched AIS on in the southern corridor, after 12 days dark. And then its speed slowed to zero after getting hit by Iranian anti-ship cruise missiles.

Can somebody tell me whats exactly the goal of this "US escort"? What does it do? Is it a maritime/military escort or maybe prostitute escort, because tankers and ships are being struck/sunk/destroyed/damaged/immobilized pretty much all the time there xD

Satellite imagery from Aug 25 shows what appears to be a vessel leaving a significant oil slick offshore from Shinas, Oman after being struck by a drone.

EIA delayed the Petroleum Supply Monthly (PSM) for June 2026 data until September due to "operational issues".

https://www.eia.gov/petroleum/supply/monthly/

This lag for non-real-time monthly figures is unprecedented, it never happened before.

It fuels SPR depletion concerns because weekly data already showed SPR at multi-decade lows (US SPR crude inventories fell by 3.1mb w/w to 286.6mb last week, lowest since 1982) from large emergency releases amid the Iran/Hormuz disruption. Delaying the fuller monthly confirmation of those draws raises questions about validation of critically low reserves.

Weekly EIA reports rely on quick estimates, survey sampling, and statistical modeling rather than exact counts. In contrast, PSM provides the census-level gold standard derived from mandatory, comprehensive industry reporting. Delaying this official baseline during an energy crisis is deeply alarming for three main reasons. First, weekly numbers often obscure discrepancies between calculated supply balances and actual physical inventories on the ground. Second, only monthly data reconciles critical trade, refining, and blending shifts to confirm true Strategic Petroleum Reserve drawdowns. Finally, postponing census validation when reserves hit 40-year lows undermines market trust and fuels fears of hidden deficits.
