Ownership & Management
Serpentine Marine Spc (IMO 0138693) is a UAE-registered vessel owner operating through Dreamer Shipmanagement LLC-FZ in Dubai. The company is identified as a sanction-linked entity on OpenSanctions and is associated with multiple shadow fleet vessels flagged to Oman, with documented affiliations to sanctioned Russian state-owned shipping company PJSC Sovcomflot.
⚠ Red Flags
- Listed as sanction-linked entity on OpenSanctions
- Multiple vessels re-registered under this company following UK/EU sanctions in July-September 2024
- Systematic pattern of vessel ownership transfers to Serpentine Marine Spc from other shell entities (Stanley Navigation Inc, Black Jade Marine Co, Almandine Seaways LTD, White Agate Marine Spc)
- All owned vessels flagged to Oman, consistent with shadow fleet tactics
- Documented affiliation with sanctioned PJSC Sovcomflot through management company Stream Ship Management FZCO
- Related management company Avebury Shipmanagement LLC-FZ previously managed sanctioned Sovcomflot tankers (IMO 9292204, 9305568, 9306794, 9311622, 9316127)
- Shared address with multiple other maritime entities suggests corporate shell infrastructure
- Company name change from Matias Ship Management LLC-FZ to Dreamer Shipmanagement LLC-FZ indicates potential sanctions evasion restructuring
Dreamer Shipmanagement LLC-FZ is a UAE‑based ship management company registered in Dubai that acts as a commercial and safety management manager for oil and LNG tankers, many of which are linked to the Russian shadow fleet and the transportation of Russian crude oil and LNG in violation of Western sanctions and price‑cap regimes.
⚠ Red Flags
- Registered at a known shell‑company address in Dubai (Meydan Hotel/Grandstand) used by multiple shadow‑fleet‑linked ship managers
- Manages vessels involved in transporting Russian crude oil and LNG in violation of G7/EU oil embargoes and price‑cap policies
- Linked to other UAE‑based management firms (e.g., Moonlight Shipmanagement LLC‑FZ, Stream Ship Management FZCO, Avebury Shipmanagement LLC‑FZ) that have been sanctioned or associated with the Russian shadow fleet and Sovcomflot
- No publicly listed contact details and minimal corporate transparency for a firm managing a sizable tanker fleet
