Iranian oil tankers face no more obstacles when traveling to any port in world, says Ali-Akbar Safaei, managing director of the National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC).

According to Safaei, quoted by IRNA news agency, NITC has secured all the required certificates from international insurance agencies for its tankers, thus removing the insurance-related hurdles and enabling its ships to dock at any port worldwide.

Unimpeded entrance to Iran's ports by foreign tankers is also to be ensured, now that there are no pending insurance problems, he added.

As informed, talks are also nearing conclusion between Iranian shipping lines with international insurance companies on obtaining the most competitive insurance policies.

Due to the latest turn of events, NITC said that it expects to return to European ports in June this year after over four years of suspension.
