Two supertankers carrying Iranian crude have arrived at Indian ports on both the east and west coasts, marking the first such deliveries in nearly seven years, according to ship-tracking data.

Felicity, a very large crude carrier operated by the National Iranian Tanker Company, anchored off Sikka on Gujarat’s coast late on Sunday (April 12, 2026), carrying about 2 million barrels loaded at Kharg Island in mid-March.
