Description:

Join us to discuss the latest estimates and in-depth analysis of the size and function of the maritime shadow fleet transporting Russian, Iranian and Venezuelan oil. We will focus on the shadow fleets current make-up; flag, ownership, domicile, risk-status, size and how it often sails under the radar.  Our speakers will provide you with a visual overview to help assist in the detection of ships with high-risk status and how certain risk attributes can be added to a compliance screening programme.

What the webinar aims to cover:

  • S&P Global Market Intelligence will present their global shadow fleet estimate covering vessels hauling Russian, Iranian and Venezuelan cargoes
  • We will identify the total number of shadow fleet ships and determine if this has fallen or risen due to the latest U.S sanction enforcements and campaign of ‘maximum pressure’ on Iranian shipping
  • Deliver an understanding of the activity of the shadow fleet; where they are active, who they partner with, their nationality and domicile location
  • Deep dive into ship asset ownership including group ownership, the rise of the single ship fleet and the potential for sanctions evasion by maritime firms
