AGP Executive Report

Last update: 2 hours ago

Maritime Security & Trade: The U.S. disabled a third tanker in the Gulf of Oman this week, striking the Guinea-Bissau-flagged MT Jalveer after it allegedly tried to transport Iranian oil; 20 Indian crew were evacuated safely, while the earlier Palau-flagged MT Settebello attack left three Indian sailors dead. Diplomacy & Accountability: India lodged a strong protest with the U.S. and summoned Chargé d’Affaires Jason Meeks, as the UN’s maritime body (IMO) called for a transparent investigation into the Settebello strike. Energy & Shipping Risk: With the Strait of Hormuz under renewed threat, Trump escalated rhetoric—vowing to hit Iran “VERY HARD TONIGHT” and later “assume total control” of Iran’s oil and gas, including Kharg Island—while Iran said the ceasefire is effectively meaningless and announced full closure to tankers. Palau Business Note: ACEN completed a P1.15 billion share subscription for its Giga Ace 8 unit tied to the Palauig Solar 2 project, underscoring ongoing renewable investment linked to Palau-related energy interests.
