Iran Allegedly Begins Using Abandoned Oil Tanks for Storage

On April 28, according to The Wall Street Journal, Iran is urgently seeking new methods for oil storage to avoid devastating production shutdowns due to the U.S. Navy’s blockade and stalled negotiations. As oil accumulates domestically, Iran is restarting abandoned sites known as ‘garbage storage,’ utilizing makeshift containers and attempting to continue exports via rail. These unconventional measures aim to delay the onset of an infrastructure crisis and weaken the U.S. leverage in the standoff in the Strait of Hormuz.
