The first Japanese-managed oil tanker to successfully transit the Strait of Hormuz since the blockade is expected to arrive in Japan shortly, according to public broadcaster NHK.
The Panama-flagged Idemitsu Maru is scheduled to dock at a refining facility in Aichi Prefecture on Monday.
The vessel is carrying about 2 million barrels of crude oil from Saudi Arabia, NHK reported.
Three Japanese crew members aboard the tanker are reportedly in good health, as Japan closely monitors energy shipments through the strategically important waterway.
