Golden Ten Data reported on June 16, citing Reuters, that in order to maintain the flow of energy exports from the Gulf region, the US military has overseen dozens of covert ship-to-ship crude oil transfer operations. It has deployed aerial drones, surface unmanned boats, and helicopters to guide fleets toward oil tankers waiting to receive the cargo. These operations have taken place at the edge of the Strait of Hormuz, utilizing a ship-to-ship transfer method long used by Iran to evade sanctions. Sources familiar with the operation confirmed two specific locations where oil transfers are taking place: one off the coast of Fujairah, UAE, and another off the coast of Sohar Port, Oman. According to shipping data and satellite images, the operation began in early May, with at least 92 vessels participating in the transfers. Satellite images show that as of June 11, 17 pairs of ships were still simultaneously conducting crude oil transfers at these two sites. Four sources, including a former US official, revealed that an Apache helicopter—shot down by Iran on June 9, which then led to retaliatory US airstrikes—was involved in this mission. Based on satellite images, on the day the Apache was shot down, six pairs of oil tankers were gathered in a small sea area off Sohar Port.
