Is there a way to change the orbit direction of tankers?

[TEMPEST.114]

In some circumstances it makes more sense for them to orbit clockwise rather than the default of anti-clockwise.

Is there a way (in scripting) to enforce one direction over the other?

short answer: no

you can setup an orbit route in either direction, when the tanker reaches say its last waypoint you can set the last waypoint option to go the first waypoint and set a duration for the tanker to keep flying that orbit/route.
