After lifting of international sanctions, an Iranian oil tanker left Iranian territorial waters for Indonesia to deliver Iranian oil consignment to its customers, Iran?s state-owned news agency IRNA reported on Tuesday.

Based on the timetable, the oil tanker will berth in the Indonesian coastlines on February 19 to deliver oil.

National Iranian Tanker Company website says, a NITC oil tanker left for Indonesia to deliver the oil consignment to Cilacap refinery in Indonesia?s Central Java Province.

That?s the first oil consignment sent to Indonesia after the elimination of international sanctions in 2016.

Indonesian state-owned oil and gas firm PT Pertamina said last month it was expecting the shipment of 44,000 tons of LPG and one million barrels of Iranian light crude purchased from National Iranian Oil Company (NIOC). (*)
