Vessel:description | Prior to russia's full-scale invasion of Ukraine, the company's fleet consisted of about 145 vessels. After the sanctions were imposed, Sovcomflot transferred dozens of vessels to the ownership of companies it had set up, including in foreign jurisdictions, in order to circumvent them, and began the practice of constantly ‘juggling’ (transferring) vessels to related companies. According to expert estimates, the tankers ‘transferred’ by Sovcomflot to related companies are part of the so-called ‘shadow tanker fleet’ of the russian federation to continue selling russian oil, oil products and liquefied gas under Western sanctions. | ua_war_sanctions | ua-ws-9cd3c3c8ac8675646f788f1c8d3b50d0de62d8d2 | ||||
Vessel:description | The services provided by Sovcomflot are a significant source of income for the russian federation, as more than 70% of russia's revenues come from the sale of energy, which allows it to finance its war against Ukraine. | ua_war_sanctions | ua-ws-9cd3c3c8ac8675646f788f1c8d3b50d0de62d8d2 | ||||
