Ship owners are offering substantial financial incentives, including additional salaries for up to six months, to attract crews to navigate through the Strait of Hormuz and unload oil from Saudi Arabia and Iraq. This comes amid increasing attacks on tankers and ongoing maritime threats. These rewards are a response to the escalation of attacks targeting 59 ships since February, which have resulted in the death of 17 sailors. The incentives include monthly salaries of up to $15,000 for the ship's captain and $1,500 for a novice sailor, along with conditions for departure for those unwilling to face the risks. These measures reflect the challenges facing energy supply chains and the maritime tensions in the region.
