Confidence Analysis

Score: 85/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (OCEAN WAVE I and MULE) maintained close proximity (min 19m, avg 66m) for 97 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.8 and 0.9 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Southern Öresund Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (SUPER G and MULE) maintained close proximity (min 17m, avg 61m) for 69 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.9 and 1.0 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Southern Öresund Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 73/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (MULE and MIREA) maintained close proximity (min 15m, avg 38m) for 40 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.7 and 0.7 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Southern Öresund Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 93/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (MULE and MIREA) maintained close proximity (min 15m, avg 50m) for 146 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.7 and 0.7 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Southern Öresund Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (MULE and MIREA) maintained close proximity (min 5m, avg 53m) for 340 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.7 and 0.7 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Southern Öresund Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 64/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (MULE and MIREA) maintained close proximity (min 23m, avg 64m) for 36 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 1.5 and 1.5 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Southern Öresund Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (MULE and MIREA) maintained close proximity (min 20m, avg 66m) for 213 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 1.5 and 1.4 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Southern Öresund Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (MULE and MIREA) maintained close proximity (min 17m, avg 64m) for 323 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 1.4 and 1.4 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Southern Öresund Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.
