Confidence Analysis
Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARCTICA and ARIES) maintained close proximity (min 155m, avg 208m) for 150 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.5 and 0.9 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.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARCTICA and ARIES) maintained close proximity (min 261m, avg 264m) for 254 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 Ust-Luga/St. Petersburg Approach, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis
High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARCTICA and ARIES) maintained close proximity (min 260m, avg 264m) for 191 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.3 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.

Confidence Analysis
Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ORENBURG and ARIES) maintained close proximity (min 455m, avg 471m) for 263 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 1.4 and 0.2 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.

Confidence Analysis
High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARCTICA and ARIES) maintained close proximity (min 243m, avg 263m) for 144 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.5 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.

Confidence Analysis
High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARCTICA and ARIES) maintained close proximity (min 258m, avg 260m) for 166 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 Ust-Luga/St. Petersburg Approach, a known STS activity area.
