Waleed Khaled Hameed al-Samarra’i is a businessman from the UAE who runs a network of companies that manage ships involved in the transportation and sale of іranian oil. This network of companies operates primarily by secretly mixing іranian oil with іraqi oil, which is then offered for sale exclusively as іraqi oil. It is estimated that al-Samarrai's network generates approximately $300 million in profits annually for both іran and its partners. Babylon Navigation DMCC handles the logistics and transportation aspects of al-Samarrai's activities. To smuggle іranian oil by mixing іranian and іraqi oil at sea through STS transfers in the Persian Gulf and in іraqi ports, al-Samarrai uses a group of vessels operated by Babylon Navigation DMCC, including the tanker IMO 9299458. On September 2, 2025, the USA imposed sanctions on the tanker. ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: flaglr eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-8a7959cab6dd0b7cdc9baafcae24b7b16ed76d4a2026-01-01 Vessel: flaglr eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: grossRegisteredTonnage19758 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: grossRegisteredTonnage19758 eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-8a7959cab6dd0b7cdc9baafcae24b7b16ed76d4a2026-01-01 Vessel: idb3be1daf932c8b69bce13307a160386801da6680 eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: idbd8386d36e6182f2ef86b47a25134733100db9ef us_trade_csl ofac-551002025-12-30 Vessel: id2f096011355a32a9c981792b24fafe4178097a84 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: id2cf424550ec433c97ffaeea2d995fa5220360821 ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-089e092210153c477b256d4cec1dc2a5700b0bd92025-12-31 Vessel: idfc60917a8d8b26bd2e5ee12b666f4194a397d2e3 ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-8a7959cab6dd0b7cdc9baafcae24b7b16ed76d4a2026-01-01 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9299458 eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9299458 eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-8a7959cab6dd0b7cdc9baafcae24b7b16ed76d4a2026-01-01 Vessel: imoNumberIMO9299458 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: mmsi636024577 eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-8a7959cab6dd0b7cdc9baafcae24b7b16ed76d4a2026-01-01 Vessel: mmsi636024577 eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: namePAOLA eng ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-089e092210153c477b256d4cec1dc2a5700b0bd92025-12-31 Vessel: namePAOLA ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: namePAOLA us_trade_csl ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: namePaola eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: namePAOLA eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-8a7959cab6dd0b7cdc9baafcae24b7b16ed76d4a2026-01-01 Vessel: pastFlagsgb ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: pastFlagsdk ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: pastFlagslr ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: previousNameMaersk Barry ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: programIdUS-IRAN eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: programIdUA-WS-MARE ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: sourceUrl https://sanctionssearch.ofac.treas.gov/Details.aspx?id=55100eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: sourceUrl https://home.treasury.gov/news/press-releases/sb0233eng ext_us_ofac_press_releases ofac-pr-089e092210153c477b256d4cec1dc2a5700b0bd92025-12-31 Vessel: topicssanction eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02 Vessel: topicssanction us_trade_csl ofac-551002025-12-30 Vessel: topicspoi ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: topicsmare.shadow ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: type21 ua_war_sanctions ua-ws-vessel-12602025-10-16 Vessel: typeOil tanker/Chemical tanker (OILCHEM) eng ext_tokyo_mou_psc tokyo-mou-psc-8a7959cab6dd0b7cdc9baafcae24b7b16ed76d4a2026-01-01 Vessel: typeChemical/Products Tanker eng us_ofac_sdn ofac-551002025-09-02
