Confidence Analysis

Score: 72/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (PAVEL YUDIN and NARVA) maintained close proximity (min 442m, avg 449m) for 213 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.3 and 0.4 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Ust-Luga/St. Petersburg Approach, a known STS activity area.
