The tanker is involved in the export of russian crude oil to third countries from russian ports in the Black and Baltic Seas, including with AIS disabled, was involved in the transportation of Venezuelan oil and switched to the transportation of sanctioned russian oil.
The international NGO Greenpeace refers to the tanker as part of a shadow fleet of tankers transporting russian oil around the world through the Baltic Sea, the Cadet Canal area in the Bay of Mecklenburg and threatening the environment.
The tanker is flagged by Cameroon, which is included in the Paris MOU on the blacklist of flags, which is formed based on the results of inspections of the technical condition of ships.
According to the Lloyds List analytical center, the tanker is an example of high-risk, dark and fraudulent activities related to fraudulent actions of technical management companies that led to the assignment of unique numbers by the International Maritime Organization. In this regard, an intersessional working group was established by the IMO Legal Committee to determine the levels of due diligence required for the use of the unique company owner identification number scheme and IMO registered owners.
