U.S. Energy Secretary: 18 Million Barrels of Oil Moved Through Hormuz in One Day U.S. Energy Secretary Chris Wright said approximately 18 million barrels of oil moved through the Strait of Hormuz yesterday, as Washington works to restore energy flows through the strategic waterway. Wright added that increased traffic through the Bab el-Mandeb Strait would further help global energy supplies. Commercial shipping data does not independently confirm the U.S. government's figures, partly because some vessels are reportedly transiting with their tracking systems switched off.
