Date Posted: 19/11/07 9:37pm In reply to: albert bishop 's message, "Short cut" on 19/11/07 10:32am Hi Albert, Not sure on this at all,but you may recall the name if you see it,so could it have been one of these!! Strait of Malacca!! Located in the Indian Ocean, this strait is a shortcut for oil tankers traveling between the Middle East and the oil-dependent nations of the Pacific Rim (especially Japan). Tankers pass through this strait bordered by Indonesia and Malaysia. Strait of Hormuz!! This chokepoint became a household term during the Persian Gulf War in 1991. The Strait of Hormuz is another critical point in the lifeline flow of oil from the Persian Gulf area. This strait is closely monitored by the U.S. military and its allies. The strait connects the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea (part of the Indian Ocean) and is surrounded by Iran. Bab el Mandeb !! Located between the Red Sea and Indian Ocean, the Bab el Mandeb is a bottleneck for sea traffic between the Mediterranean Sea and Indian Ocean. It is surrounded by Yemen, Djibouti, and six-year old Eritrea. As i said i dont know so this is just some info that may assist you. Cheers Vernon Happy with Larry [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] |
