Confidence Analysis

Score: 85/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (OMSK and PROXIMA) maintained close proximity (min 36m, avg 40m) for 72 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.0 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Sakhalin South Approach, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (PROXIMA and OMSK) maintained close proximity (min 31m, avg 39m) for 138 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.0 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Sakhalin South Approach, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (PROXIMA and OMSK) maintained close proximity (min 31m, avg 39m) for 249 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.0 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Sakhalin South Approach, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (PROXIMA and OMSK) maintained close proximity (min 31m, avg 39m) for 285 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.0 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Sakhalin South Approach, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (PROXIMA and OMSK) maintained close proximity (min 31m, avg 39m) for 381 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.0 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Sakhalin South Approach, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (PROXIMA and OMSK) maintained close proximity (min 32m, avg 40m) for 387 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.1 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Sakhalin South Approach, a known STS activity area.
