Justification
Vessel information
During the period of the G7 and EU oil embargo and the price-cap policy on russian oil, the tanker is involved in the export of russian oil (oil products) to third countries.
The vessel is affiliated with one of the leading operators of the so-called 'shadow' fleet, the sanctioned company Radiating World Shipping Services LLC, as the previous manager of the tankers. In order to circumvent the sanctions, Radiating World Shipping Services 're-registered' its fleet to related companies. The constant change of owners and managers of vessels to avoid sanctions and conceal the true beneficiaries of the vessels is typical for the so-called 'shadow' fleet involved in the russian oil and oil products trade.
On October 17, 2024, the United Kingdom imposed sanctions on tankers of the russian so-called 'shadow' fleet, including the tanker ІМО 9288722.
On February 21, 2025, Canada imposed sanctions on the vessel.
On February 24, March 04, 2025 EU and Switzerland respectively imposed sanctions on the tanker for transporting crude oil/oil products originating in or exported from russia using irregular and high-risk shipping practices as specified in the International Maritime Organization General Assembly resolution A.1192 (33) (EU sanctions will enter into force on February 25, 2025).
On June 19, 2025, New Zealand imposed sanctions on the vessel.
