| Description | During the enforcement of the G7 and EU embargo and price cap on russian oil and petroleum products, the tanker has been actively engaged in the export of russian-origin oil and petroleum products from russian ports in the Baltic Sea (2023–2025) and the Black Sea (2023). The vessel routinely disables its Automatic Identification System (AIS) and conducts dark activity near russian Baltic ports. The tanker is also involved in high-risk operations, including ship-to-ship (STS) transfers of russian cargo near European countries. In April 2025, after departing laden from the russian port of Vysotsk in March, the tanker (deadweight of over 72,000 tons) conducted STS transfers near Malta with tankers IMO 9314868 (deadweight over of 37,000 tons) and IMO 9263198 (deadweight of 40,000 tons), the latter having been sanctioned since May 2025. Following the transfers, IMO 9314868 discharged its cargo at the port of Bakar (Croatia), while IMO 9263198 unloaded at the Baniyas Oil Terminal (Syria). · In March 2025, the tanker ІМО 9309007 bunkered the sanctioned vessel IMO 9109081 at the russian port of Kronstadt. In May 2023, the tanker transported a cargo of nearly 30,000 metric tons of russian petroleum products from Tuapse. The shipment originated from a production facility that includes the Tuapse Oil Refinery and maritime terminal owned by the sanctioned PJSC "NK "Rosneft" (ПАО "НК "Роснефть"). The consignor was Amur Trading FZCO, and the consignee was Tejarinaft FZCO. · Since February 2023, the vessel has been managed by the Greece-based company IMS SA, whose fleet as of 30 June 2025 includes 28 oil tankers, some of which are also involved in transporting russian-origin oil and petroleum products. IMS SA is a well-known ship management company specializing in the operation of oil and chemical tankers. | [sources] | |||
