New location for STS transfer of Russian oil
Under pressure from Greece’s navy, traders of Russian oil have found a new place to switch cargoes of crude in the Mediterranean sea near the city of Nador at the eastern end of Morocco’s coast. Since May, Greece’s navy has been holding naval exercises in a location where the trade had been taking place in a attempt to deter it. The new location is close to the Spanish-run enclave Melilla, raising the prospect that Madrid might repeat steps it took to block similar activity 140 miles to the west, near its other enclave Ceuta. Those measures ultimately stopped the practice. The 'Rolin' was s receiving Urals crude from the smaller tanker 'Serendi' (IMO: 9296810). It was the first time that the STS transfer of the grade has taken place there. Two more Aframax-class ship, the 'Ocean AMZ' and 'Sea Fidelity' — have also arrived. All three loaded about 730,000 barrels of Urals from Russia’s Baltic sea port of Primorsk.
