Detected Events (8)
- Minimum Distance: 14 meters
- Average Distance: 21 meters
- Duration: 33 minutes
- Period: 2026-07-29T10:02:32+00:00 to 2026-07-29T10:36:23+00:00
- Vessel A Avg Speed: 0.0 knots

Confidence Analysis
Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (STELLA HO and NO.7 HAEGU) maintained close proximity (min 14m, avg 21m) for 34 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 Strait of Gibraltar Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.
