High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (SARIYAH and CAMARO) maintained close proximity (min 303m, avg 313m) for 243 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (SARIYAH and CAMARO) maintained close proximity (min 304m, avg 307m) for 150 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 (SARIYAH and BASILIS L) maintained close proximity (min 63m, avg 70m) for 321 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: 70/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (SARIYAH and LADYBUG) maintained close proximity (min 334m, avg 337m) for 81 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (BASILIS L and SARIYAH) maintained close proximity (min 67m, avg 69m) for 57 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 (SARIYAH and CAMARO) maintained close proximity (min 301m, avg 306m) for 96 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (SARIYAH and CAMARO) maintained close proximity (min 301m, avg 307m) for 234 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 (CAMARO and SARIYAH) maintained close proximity (min 301m, avg 306m) for 106 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (SARIYAH and LADYBUG) maintained close proximity (min 328m, avg 340m) for 164 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 (CAMARO and SARIYAH) maintained close proximity (min 301m, avg 308m) for 196 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 (SARIYAH and CAMARO) maintained close proximity (min 300m, avg 309m) for 384 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.
