Maritime logistics is critically important for building up the aggressor`s military capabilities, moving troops, obtaining weapons and sanctioned goods, and trading stolen goods. Aggressors transport weapons through international straits on civilian merchant vessels. Exporting fossil fuels to circumvent sanctions is the main source of income for russia and Iran. The shadow tanker fleet and ships without ice class in the Arctic threaten an environmental disaster. Through the sale of agricultural products from the temporarily occupied Ukrainian territories, russia finances the war and maintains the loyalty of its allies, Iran and the DPRK.
Together we can stop this to restore peace and security
Actions to be taken
  • to sanction the vessels on the list below, as well as all related companies and individuals (owners, operators, managers, executives, senior crew members)

  • to increase and ensure compliance with environmental and safety requirements for tankers entering territorial waters, EEZs and international straits

The tanker is involved in the transportation of russian, Iranian crude oil / petroleum products.
Since russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, more than 100 vessels that previously helped Iran export oil are now helping russia transport russian crude oil and petroleum products.
Many tankers involved in transporting Iranian oil to countries such as China are also involved in Venezuelan trade, including tanker IMO 9144782. On June 11, 2022, Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro and former Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi signed a 20-year cooperation agreement to expand ties in the oil and petrochemical industries, as well as in the military and economic spheres. Since then, bilateral ties have begun to develop. Most cargo is transported by ships belonging to the sanctioned National Iranian Tanker Company (NITC) in both directions. A significant number of ships flying under foreign (non-Iranian) flags are also involved in this trade.
In addition, the ship has not undergone a full inspection since 2017, does not have industry-standard insurance, and sails under the flag of Cameroon, a country that is blacklisted under the Paris Memorandum and has a poor reputation for maritime safety oversight.
In June-July 2024, the UK and the EU imposed sanctions on the tanker for its involvement in the transport of russian crude oil and/or petroleum products from the russian federation to third countries, as well as for its participation in circumventing European restrictions.
Since October 17, 2024, Switzerland has imposed sanctions on the tanker.
On February 21, 2025, Canada imposed sanctions on the vessel.
On November 20, 2025, the US imposed sanctions on the tanker.
On December 4, 2025, Australia imposed sanctions on the tanker.
Since December 13, 2025, Ukraine has imposed sanctions on the vessel.
On February 20, 2026, New Zealand imposed sanctions on the vessel.
