Confidence Analysis

Score: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (NAVIG8 EXPRESS and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 64m, avg 69m) for 54 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 (NAVIG8 EXPRESS and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 64m, avg 69m) 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 (NAVIG8 EXPRESS and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 64m, avg 69m) for 240 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 (NAVIG8 EXPRESS and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 64m, avg 69m) for 279 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 (NAVIG8 EXPRESS and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 64m, avg 69m) for 366 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 (NAVIG8 EXPRESS and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 65m, avg 70m) for 375 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.

Moderate-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TWIST and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 318m, avg 325m) 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: 80/100

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (TWIST and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 317m, avg 324m) 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.

High-confidence STS candidate. Two tankers (HORIZON ARMONIA and NAVIG8 EXPRESS) maintained close proximity (min 63m, avg 70m) for 388 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 (HORIZON ARMONIA and TWIST) maintained close proximity (min 317m, avg 323m) for 370 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 (HORIZON ARMONIA and NAVIG8 EXPRESS) maintained close proximity (min 63m, avg 70m) for 376 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 (TWIST and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 317m, avg 324m) for 324 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 (TWIST and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 317m, avg 324m) for 378 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 (TWIST and HORIZON ARMONIA) maintained close proximity (min 317m, avg 324m) 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 Northern Baltic Sea Surveillance Zone, a known STS activity area.
