Confidence Analysis

Score: 75/100

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (ARVES OIL and MONA) maintained close proximity (min 458m, avg 472m) for 126 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.2 and 0.1 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Bosphorus/Dardanelles Approach, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 57/100

Low-confidence STS candidate - may warrant review. Two tankers (ARVES OIL and MONA) maintained close proximity (min 393m, avg 424m) for 36 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.1 and 0.2 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Bosphorus/Dardanelles Approach, a known STS activity area.

Confidence Analysis

Score: 55/100

Low-confidence STS candidate - may warrant review. Two tankers (ARVES OIL and MONA) maintained close proximity (min 429m, avg 438m) for 33 minutes. Both vessels were slow-moving (avg speeds 0.1 and 0.1 knots). The stable separation distance suggests deliberate parallel positioning typical of cargo transfer. Event occurred in Bosphorus/Dardanelles Approach, a known STS activity area.
