Possible scenario
Escorted Shuttle Regime
38% Chance
The most likely path is that Gulf exporters, insurers, and the US Fifth Fleet formalize escorted shuttle runs between Gulf loading ports and Gulf of Oman transfer points. Rates remain historically high, but cargoes keep moving and the market treats the situation as a managed wartime logistics premium rather than a full closure.
