Despite the fact that Trump lifted the sanctions that blocked the sale of Russian oil, the Swedes seized another oil tanker in the Baltic Sea, linked to the Russian shadow fleet.

Sweden Seizes False-Flagged Oil Tanker Allegedly Bound for Russia - The Moscow Times Sweden’s coast guard said Thursday that it seized a false-flagged ship that is part of Russia’s so-called “shadow fleet” of oil tankers, coming days after authorities in the Scandinavian country took ...

The tanker Sea Owl I flies the Comorian flag. The coast guard suspects that it is not included in their ship register, that it is sailing under a false flag and that there is therefore no flag state that can guarantee the safety on board. #shadowfleet

Sometimes, the stars simply align. Such an operation needs much preprartion time. We & others alerted authorities about each such passing #flagless vessel since the beginning of this year, though. It finally pays off.
Right so: no flag - no insurance - high risk of fatal oil spills

📰 Shadow Fleet Keeps Strait of Hormuz Open Amid International Sanctions

Tracking Maritime Activity and Incidents in the Strait of Hormuz Amid Closure Iran's recent actions to restrict passage through the Strait of Hormuz have caused significant disruption to maritime traffic in the strategically vital waterway. While Iran cannot completely close the strait, threats from ballistic missiles, drones, and other military assets have created a de facto risk zone. Sky News’ Data & Forensics team analyzed 13 confirmed ship transits from March 2 to March 9, though many vessels turn off tracking systems, operating as part of the 'shadow fleet.' These shadow fleet vessels, often carrying sanctioned oil from Iran, Russia, or Venezuela, dominate the crossings. Ships from countries including Greece, India, the UAE, Singapore, China, and Iran have been observed transiting. Attacks on vessels have escalated, with 14 reported incidents between February 28 and March 10, resulting in casualties, fires, and oil spills. GPS jamming has surged in the region, complicating tracking and raising concerns about navigational safety. Major shipping companies like Maersk and MSC have suspended operations in the area as a precaution. Overall, the closure of the strait is having far-reaching implications for global shipping and energy markets, while the presence of shadow fleets highlights the ongoing geopolitical tensions in the region.

Yes, though only lately and perhaps over by now. In my quick & dirty analysis on flag changes between Nov 14 to Jan 14, no #shadowfleet tanker moved to Oman. It changed lately with 3 tankers moving there between Feb 15 and 22. Since then, none.

The Russian flag is even more unpopular than I thought! 😅

With Russian vessels being drone targets, Cameroon starting (slowly) to clean up its registry, Sierra Leone has become the last 'safe' haven for #shadowfleet tankers.

Shadow Fleet Maintains Oil Transit Amid Strait of Hormuz Conflict Since the outbreak of the conflict involving the United States, Israel, and Iran on February 28, 2026, the Strait of Hormuz has seen a dramatic collapse in oil tanker traffic, dropping by over 90%. Iran has warned it may target ships transiting the strait, causing insurers to reconsider coverage for vessels in the area. Consequently, more than 400 tankers are stranded in the Persian Gulf, unable to move legally. Only a subset of vessels, often referred to as the “shadow fleet,” continue operations. These ships bypass regulations, ignore sanctions, and sometimes operate with opaque insurance or under flags of convenience. The maritime system relies on voluntary compliance, with transponders and inspections intended to ensure safety and legality. However, ships can go “dark” by turning off transponders or changing registration, effectively becoming stateless. This has enabled the shadow fleet to transport oil despite sanctions and conflicts. Analysts estimate that approximately 1,100 dark fleet vessels, representing 17–18% of oil-carrying tankers, operate globally. The current situation in the Strait of Hormuz demonstrates that while the international maritime system is built on voluntary participation, the shadow fleet exploits gaps to continue trade when legitimate shipping is blocked by war or sanctions. The article emphasizes that these actions highlight both the limitations and intended voluntary nature of maritime rules, rather than a systemic failure.
