DescriptionHong Kong-based Hozdra Group Limited owns and operates the VLCC-class oil tanker IMO 9222443. Since Hozdra Group Limited acquired ownership of the vessel in 2025, the tanker has delivered approximately 6 million barrels of Iranian crude oil to the PRC, obtained from sanctioned vessels. On October 9, 2025, the US imposed sanctions on Hozdra Group Limited for its activities in the Iranian oil sector, as well as on the tanker IMO 9222443. Many tankers involved in transporting Iranian oil to countries such as China are also involved in Venezuelan trade, including tanker IMO 9222443. On June 11, 2022, Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and former Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi signed a 20-year cooperation agreement to expand ties in the oil and petrochemical industries, as well as in the military and economic spheres. Since then, bilateral ties have begun to develop. Most cargo is transported by ships belonging to the sanctioned National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) in both directions. A significant number of ships flying under foreign (non-Iranian) flags are also involved in this trade.[sources]
