DescriptionThe vessel is affiliated with the company Alya Marine Sendirian Berad, which was sanctioned by USA on October 11, 2024 for engaging in a significant number of transactions involving the purchase, acquisition, sale, transportation or marketing of crude oil/petroleum products from Iran. Since russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, more than 100 vessels that previously helped Iran export oil are now helping russia transport russian crude oil and petroleum products. Many tankers involved in transporting Iranian oil to countries such as China are also involved in Venezuelan trade, including tanker IMO 9183271. On June 11, 2022, Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and former Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi signed a 20-year cooperation agreement to expand ties in the oil and petrochemical industries, as well as in the military and economic spheres. Since then, bilateral ties have begun to develop. Most cargo is transported by ships belonging to the sanctioned National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) in both directions. A significant number of ships flying under foreign (non-Iranian) flags are also involved in this trade. On October 11, 2024, USA imposed sanctions on the tanker as a property in which the sanctioned company Alya Marine Sendirian Berhad has an interest. Since December 13, 2025, Ukraine has imposed sanctions on the vessel.[sources]
