The section "Ships" has been expanded with the "Shadow Fleet" functionality
12.12.2024
The "Shadow Fleet" tab has been added to the "Marine vessels" section. It contains information on 238 "figures" in the shadow fleet of old oil tankers, which provides multibillion-dollar revenues to aggressors and threatens global environmental safety.

Currently, such tankers can be filtered by the main operators that emerged in 2022-2023 and played a key role in the formation of the Russian shadow fleet and ensuring the transportation of russian oil under sanctions. These are companies and vessels associated with the russian company Sovcomflot, Gatik Ship Management (India), Fractal Marine DMCC (UAE), Radiating World Shipping Services LLC (UAE), Star Voyages Shipping Services LLC (UAE), Hennesea Holdings Limited, and others. For your convenience, you can also filter tankers by sanctions regime (russia or Iran) and applicable restrictions. In addition, the section allows you to track who currently owns and operates the shadow fleet.

Since the beginning of the full-scale invasion, russia has spent about $10 billion to create its own shadow fleet.

The shadow fleet is made up mainly of outdated, poorly maintained vessels without proper insurance, with ‘confusing’ ownership and management structures, located in ‘friendly’ jurisdictions, flying ‘convenient’ flags. Such vessels resort to deceptive tactics at sea to conceal the origin of their cargo, threaten ‘environmental chaos’ and billions of dollars in losses to coastal countries due to the growing risk of disasters when navigating busy narrow international transport routes, and refuse pilotage services. Since the start of the full-scale invasion, more than 50 incidents involving shadow tankers have already been reported from the Danish Straits to Malaysia.

Exports of fossil fuels are a key source of funding for the aggressors' military buildup and feeding the “bloody” regimes. In 2023, russia earned $188 billion from oil exports, while Iran earned almost $53 billion.
