Iran relies on an extensive network of tankers and ship management companies in multiple jurisdictions to transport its oil to foreign customers, using deceptive tactics such as falsifying documentation, manipulating ship tracking systems, and constantly changing ship names and flags. One of the most commonly used tactics to evade oil sanctions is 'flag hopping' in various national registries, which allows the vessel to carry out transportation and have the right to moor. This tactic is often accompanied by the creation of fictitious companies, change of owners, managers, ship names, and change of physical markings of the vessel. Some shipowners deliberately use flag registries to evade sanctions, many of which do not have the resources and capabilities to track and verify the history of ships. On December 03, 2024, USA imposed sanctions on the vessel. ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: flagst eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612024-12-03 Vessel: flagst ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: grossRegisteredTonnage159383 eng tokyo_mou_detention tok-mou-det-6d4d7eb446b9498433d55b29ea6377ba268d32842025-06-08 Vessel: id812ef3c24b8832c22a9f8b77f8ddb8191f9fd2ad us_trade_csl ofac-513612025-12-30 Vessel: id768ecd1c95cbd1405657d1d0225e5d0c3a2bce72 eng tokyo_mou_detention tok-mou-det-6d4d7eb446b9498433d55b29ea6377ba268d32842025-08-31 Vessel: idcd93445a7ade93606864bf4e5f455165e6765256 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-09 Vessel: id2106716117372b8d3b011b4c3c126158e4271c66 eng us_sam_exclusions usgsa-s4mrvttq22025-12-29 Vessel: id7196b4e283b40c85f667ce8b35a78ca93c0bdbb3 ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-41710377e8a67d5d90d758ac1ddfc1eadf9f963a2025-12-31 Vessel: id8e2d7bfb2c825527fb71b1b8449495fb583e8351 eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612025-06-02 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9196644 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9196644 eng tokyo_mou_detention tok-mou-det-6d4d7eb446b9498433d55b29ea6377ba268d32842025-06-08 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9196644 eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612024-12-09 Vessel: mmsi668116202 eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612024-12-03 Vessel: mmsi668116202 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: nameELVA ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: nameELVA eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612024-12-03 Vessel: nameELVA us_trade_csl ofac-513612024-12-03 Vessel: nameELVA eng ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-41710377e8a67d5d90d758ac1ddfc1eadf9f963a2025-12-31 Vessel: nameELVA eng us_sam_exclusions usgsa-s4mrvttq22025-02-28 Vessel: nameELVA eng tokyo_mou_detention tok-mou-det-6d4d7eb446b9498433d55b29ea6377ba268d32842025-06-08 Vessel: pastFlagskn ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: pastFlagsbs ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: pastFlagsim ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: previousNameHakata ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: previousNameOtina ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: previousNameEkaterina ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: previousNameFront Hakata ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: programIdUS-IRAN eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612025-06-02 Vessel: programIdUA-WS-MARE ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-09 Vessel: registrationNumberNTWGE843JWL7 eng us_sam_exclusions usgsa-s4mrvttq22025-02-28 Vessel: sourceUrl https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/Details.aspx?id=51361eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612024-12-03 Vessel: sourceUrl https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/jy2734eng ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-41710377e8a67d5d90d758ac1ddfc1eadf9f963a2025-12-31 Vessel: topicspoi ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: topicsdebarment eng us_sam_exclusions usgsa-s4mrvttq22025-12-29 Vessel: topicssanction eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612024-12-03 Vessel: topicssanction us_trade_csl ofac-513612025-12-30 Vessel: topicsmare.detained eng tokyo_mou_detention tok-mou-det-6d4d7eb446b9498433d55b29ea6377ba268d32842025-08-31 Vessel: topicsmare.shadow ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: type20 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-6322025-10-06 Vessel: typeOil tanker eng tokyo_mou_detention tok-mou-det-6d4d7eb446b9498433d55b29ea6377ba268d32842025-06-08 Vessel: typeCrude Oil Tanker eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-513612024-12-03
