Confidence Analysis

Score: 85/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARDMORE ENTERPRISE and DIDIMON) maintained close proximity (min 66m, avg 72m) for 60 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 85/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARDMORE ENTERPRISE and DIDIMON) maintained close proximity (min 66m, avg 72m) for 72 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 90/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARDMORE ENTERPRISE and DIDIMON) maintained close proximity (min 63m, avg 69m) for 114 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.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (DIDIMON and ARDMORE ENTERPRISE) maintained close proximity (min 68m, avg 71m) for 135 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (DIDIMON and ARDMORE ENTERPRISE) maintained close proximity (min 61m, avg 70m) for 201 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARDMORE ENTERPRISE and DIDIMON) maintained close proximity (min 61m, avg 70m) for 207 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (DIDIMON and ARDMORE ENTERPRISE) maintained close proximity (min 64m, avg 70m) for 186 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARDMORE ENTERPRISE and DIDIMON) maintained close proximity (min 56m, avg 69m) for 216 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARDMORE ENTERPRISE and DIDIMON) maintained close proximity (min 56m, avg 70m) for 369 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (DIDIMON and ARDMORE ENTERPRISE) maintained close proximity (min 65m, avg 70m) for 207 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (DIDIMON and ARDMORE ENTERPRISE) maintained close proximity (min 61m, avg 70m) for 330 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARDMORE ENTERPRISE and DIDIMON) maintained close proximity (min 61m, avg 69m) for 258 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (DIDIMON and ARDMORE ENTERPRISE) maintained close proximity (min 68m, avg 71m) for 144 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (DIDIMON and ARDMORE ENTERPRISE) maintained close proximity (min 66m, avg 71m) for 132 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARDMORE ENTERPRISE and DIDIMON) maintained close proximity (min 64m, avg 71m) for 180 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 95/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (DIDIMON and ARDMORE ENTERPRISE) maintained close proximity (min 57m, avg 69m) for 168 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.
