Confidence Analysis

Score: 85/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ZONDAR and BASILIS L) maintained close proximity (min 67m, avg 70m) for 75 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 (ZONDAR and BASILIS L) maintained close proximity (min 65m, avg 70m) for 117 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: 70/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ALFA SEA and ZONDAR) maintained close proximity (min 337m, avg 339m) for 84 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ALFA SEA and ZONDAR) maintained close proximity (min 337m, avg 340m) for 258 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ALFA SEA and ZONDAR) maintained close proximity (min 335m, avg 339m) for 351 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: 62/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (NAVIGATOR and ZONDAR) maintained close proximity (min 311m, avg 321m) for 48 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.3 and 0.1 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (NAVIGATOR and ZONDAR) maintained close proximity (min 313m, avg 316m) 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ZONDAR and NAVIGATOR) maintained close proximity (min 300m, avg 314m) 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ZONDAR and NAVIGATOR) maintained close proximity (min 300m, avg 314m) for 168 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: 60/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (NAVIGATOR and ZONDAR) maintained close proximity (min 314m, avg 315m) for 42 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.
