Confidence Analysis

Score: 85/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TRANS SEA and THALIA) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 1m) for 78 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (THALIA and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 2m) for 198 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TRANS SEA and THALIA) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 2m) for 30 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (THALIA and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 4m) for 327 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TRANS TIND and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 1m, avg 2m) for 382 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (THALIA and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 1m) for 126 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TRANS SEA and TRANS TIND) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 2m) for 210 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 75/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TRANS SEA and STRIZH) maintained close proximity (min 2m, avg 3m) for 35 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 85/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (THALIA and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 10m) for 86 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.1 and 0.0 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TRANS SEA and TRITONEA) maintained close proximity (min 5m, avg 69m) for 63 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TRANS SEA and JAG PRANESH) maintained close proximity (min 1m, avg 4m) for 106 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 92/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (THALIA and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 16m) for 235 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 92/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (THALIA and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 0m, avg 14m) for 378 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (YANBU and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 1m, avg 1m) for 270 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.1 and 0.0 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (YANBU and TRANS SEA) maintained close proximity (min 1m, avg 1m) for 317 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 Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TRANS SEA and ANAYA) maintained close proximity (min 1m, avg 3m) for 32 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.0 and 0.4 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Eastern Mediterranean Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.
