Since the beginning of 2025, tanker IMO 9263215 has made at least two oil shipments using sanctioned vessels of the sanctioned National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) to assist in delivering up to six million barrels of oil to China. Iran's shadow fleet relies on little-known ship management companies to operate its fleet of tankers, which Tehran needs to disguise Iranian oil shipments to China using ship-to-ship (STS) transportation with sanctioned vessels. Many tankers involved in transporting Iranian oil to countries such as China are also involved in Venezuelan trade, including tanker IMO 9263215. 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 May 08, 2025, USA imposed sanctions on the vessel. ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912026-01-20 Vessel: flagpa us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472025-05-08 Vessel: flagpa ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-bdc75435e94f539c6054c86fecee900b5ce0aab22026-01-01 Vessel: grossRegisteredTonnage159730 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912026-01-20 Vessel: grossRegisteredTonnage159730 eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-bdc75435e94f539c6054c86fecee900b5ce0aab22026-01-01 Vessel: ide9002bc9aa1c4db70eab46b6e571d192d6c4903b us_trade_csl ofac-541472026-01-06 Vessel: id3e4f35651da5afd2f9d63d85b46b86d16cbd7f86 us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472026-01-06 Vessel: id294b6dd455efc8825943454146b777a1898a1815 ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-af48bc3c2f072f42cc0d28fa3839dd8d61918e082026-01-06 Vessel: id7075533cb33edc2f2d0332e65a0a2b93bfa7b451 us_sam_exclusions usgsa-s4mrwcfxj2026-01-06 Vessel: ida01fefa5066beb3d85ecb4cfc0fb631ae6e19d23 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912026-02-05 Vessel: ide9357ddceb8198c20add4199dd1a314bbd178eb5 ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-bdc75435e94f539c6054c86fecee900b5ce0aab22026-01-08 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9263215 eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-bdc75435e94f539c6054c86fecee900b5ce0aab22026-01-01 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9263215 eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472025-05-08 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9263215 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: mmsi356336000 eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-bdc75435e94f539c6054c86fecee900b5ce0aab22026-01-01 Vessel: mmsi356336000 eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472025-05-08 Vessel: nameBIG MAG us_trade_csl ofac-541472025-05-08 Vessel: nameBIG MAG eng us_sam_exclusions usgsa-s4mrwcfxj2025-05-24 Vessel: nameBIG MAG eng ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-af48bc3c2f072f42cc0d28fa3839dd8d61918e082025-12-31 Vessel: nameBIG MAG eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472025-05-08 Vessel: nameBIG MAG eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-bdc75435e94f539c6054c86fecee900b5ce0aab22026-01-01 Vessel: nameBIG MAG ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: notesThe Maduro-Khamenei Oil Alliance ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912026-01-20 Vessel: notesIran's 'ghost armada' ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912026-01-09 Vessel: pastFlagslr ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: pastFlagspa ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: previousNameWin Win ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: previousNameCosgreat Lake ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: previousNameLila Zhuhai ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: programIdUA-WS-MARE ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-09 Vessel: programIdUS-IRAN eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472025-06-02 Vessel: registrationNumberEK6WFZ9F4KJ4 eng us_sam_exclusions usgsa-s4mrwcfxj2025-05-24 Vessel: sourceUrl https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0135ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-af48bc3c2f072f42cc0d28fa3839dd8d61918e082025-12-31 Vessel: sourceUrl https://war-sanctions.gur.gov.ua/transport/ships/1091ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912026-02-05 Vessel: sourceUrl https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/Details.aspx?id=54147us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472025-05-08 Vessel: topicssanction us_trade_csl ofac-541472025-12-30 Vessel: topicsmare.shadow ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: topicssanction us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472025-05-08 Vessel: topicsdebarment us_sam_exclusions usgsa-s4mrwcfxj2025-12-29 Vessel: topicspoi ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912025-10-06 Vessel: typeCrude Oil Tanker eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-541472025-05-08 Vessel: typeOil tanker eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-bdc75435e94f539c6054c86fecee900b5ce0aab22026-01-01 Vessel: typeCrude Oil Tanker ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-10912026-01-27
