DescriptionIn December 2023, the United Kingdom imposed sanctions on Radiating World Shipping Services LLC (UAE), which is transferring its tankers to other newly established related companies to avoid sanctions. · On 17 October 2024, the United Kingdom imposed sanctions on tankers of the russian so-called ‘shadow’ fleet, including the tanker ‘TURBO VOYAGER’, in connection with the transportation of russian oil and/or oil products from the russian federation to third countries. · 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. · The tanker is involved in the export of russian oil (oil products) from russian ports, in particular in the Baltic Sea, to third countries. · The vessel is affiliated with the UAE-based sanctioned company Radiating World Shipping Services LLC. The company was established in 2022, is one of the leading operators of the so-called ‘shadow’ fleet, and in early 2023 was one of the three largest carriers of russian oil, along with Fractal Marine Shipping (UAE) and Gatik Ship Management (India). At that time, the fleet of Fractal Marine Shipping, Radiating World Shipping Services and Gatik Ship Management comprised about 90 tankers, 90% of which transported oil and oil products from the Baltic and Black Sea ports of russia to India, China, Turkey, the Middle East, Africa and South America.[sources]
