Justification
Vessel information
It is involved in the transportation of fossil fuels from the Arctic LNG-2 facility in violation of international maritime law, using so-called spoofing to conceal the vessel's true location.
On 25 August 2024, the vessel was moored near Line 1 of the Arctic LNG-2 facility, and at 22:27 the tanker stopped transmitting the falsified AIS signal. Arctic LNG-2 is the second large-capacity LNG project after Yamal LNG of the sanctioned Novatek (TIN: 6316031581) for natural gas production and liquefied natural gas production on the Gydansky Peninsula.
In November 2023 and February 2024, USA and United Kingdom respectively imposed sanctions on the russian Arctic LNG-2 project, which is of strategic importance for the russian government.
On 23 August 2024, USA imposed sanctions on seven LNG tankers of the shadow russian tanker fleet, as part of the restrictions on entities supporting the development of the Arctic LNG-2 and other future energy projects.
