During the period of the G7 and EU oil embargo and the price cap policy on russian crude oil/petroleum products, the tanker is systematically involved in the export of russian crude oil/petroleum products from russian ports in the Baltic and Black Seas, including the use of deceptive practices (conducting dark activities near the russian ports of Ust-Luga, Novorossiysk, Tuapse, in the area south of the Kerch Strait). In April-May 2023, the tanker was involved in the export of russian fuel oil (almost 85 thousand tons) from the russian port of Tuapse, where the production complex belonging to the sanctioned PJSC Rosneft Oil Company, the Tuapse Oil Refinery with a sea terminal, is located. The sender of the cargo was the sanctioned russian Rosneft, and the recipient was Guron Trading Limited (Hong Kong), which was sanctioned by the United States in January 2025 as part of the restrictions on traders of russian oil. The international NGO Greenpeace refers to the tanker as part of the shadow fleet of tankers that transport russian oil around the world and threaten the environment.
