DescriptionDuring the period of the G7 and EU oil embargo and the price-cap policy on russian oil, the tanker is involved in the export of russian oil (oil products) to third countries. The vessel is affiliated with Alqutb Alshamali Marine Services LLC (UAE) with a non-transparent organizational and ownership structure, which managed the tanker and two sanctioned oil tankers IMO 9331141, IMO 9331153, affiliated with one of the leading operators of the so-called 'shadow' fleet - the sanctioned company Radiating World Shipping Services LLC as the previous manager of the tankers. The constant change of owners and managers of vessels to avoid sanctions and conceal the true beneficiaries of the vessels is typical for the so-called 'shadow' fleet involved in the russian oil and oil products trade. On October 17, 2024, the United Kingdom imposed sanctions on tankers of the russian so-called 'shadow fleet', including the tanker ІМО 9285859. On February 21, 2025, Canada imposed sanctions on the vessel. On May 20, 2025, the EU imposed sanctions, which enter into force on May 21, 2025, on the tanker for the transportation of crude oil/petroleum products originating in or exported from russia, using irregular high-risk shipping practices as specified in the International Maritime Organization General Assembly Resolution A.1192(33). On June 03, 2025, the sanctions imposed by Switzerland on the vessel came into force. In September 2025, the tanker transported nearly 99,800 tons of russian-origin crude oil from the Sheshkharis terminal in the port of Novorossiysk (russian federation) to the port of Sikka (India). The cargo was shipped by the sanctioned company Lukoil and chartered by Litasco.[sources]
