Vessel information
The tanker, during the period of the G7+ oil embargo and the price-cap policy on russian crude oil/oil products, is engaged in the transportation of russian crude crude oil/oil products from russian ports, in particular, in the Black and Baltic Seas, including the use of deceptive, high-risk practices (turning off AIS) in the Kerch Strait area, where a transshipment hub of russian crude oil/oil products has been established near the russian port of Kavkaz. The tanker called at the russian port, where crude oil is constantly trading above the price cap.
The international NGO Greenpeace refers to the tanker as part of a shadow fleet of tankers transporting russian oil around the world and threatening the environment.
The tanker is affiliated with Aquaquasar Holding Limited, which was sanctioned by USA on January 10, 2025 for its activities in the energy sector of the russian economy.
On January 10, 2025, USA imposed sanctions on the tanker, which is considered to be part of the shadow fleet, as a property in which Aquaquasar Holding Limited has an interest.
On May 20, 2025, the EU imposed sanctions, which will enter into force on May 21, 2025, on the tanker for the transportation of crude oil/petroleum products originating in or exported from russia, using irregular high-risk shipping practices as specified in the International Maritime Organization General Assembly Resolution A.1192(33).
On June 03, 2025, the sanctions imposed by Switzerland on the vessel came into force.
