The Abu Dhabi National Oil Company (ADNOC) issued a formal statement on Friday confirming that its maritime operations continue to face significant disruptions due to ongoing attacks. According to the company, 15 of its vessels have been struck by drones and missiles while transiting the Strait of Hormuz since the onset of the current regional war.

Three of these incidents reportedly occurred within the past week alone. The company noted that these attacks have resulted in at least one crew member being injured. In response to the security threats, ADNOC stated that it is implementing measures to safeguard its personnel, physical assets, and operational continuity. Despite the hostile environment, the company maintains that it is striving to meet its customer obligations as effectively as possible under the circumstances.

While the company has characterized the attacks as "unprovoked," the report does not identify the specific actors responsible for the drone and missile strikes. The situation remains fluid as the company attempts to balance the safety of its maritime fleet with the logistical demands of oil transport through a critical global shipping corridor.
