Time Needed to Clear Strait of Hormuz Mines
The reopening of the Strait of Hormuz following an agreement between the United States and Iran is accompanied by efforts to remove the naval mines planted by Iran, which could take between 40 and 50 days of work using traditional minesweepers and remotely operated submarines. The presence of these mines poses a significant threat to oil shipping, which traditionally passed through the strait before the war, accounting for about 20% of global oil supplies. Despite the preliminary agreement to reopen the strait, the threat of further threats remains.
