Ownership & Management
VELLUM SKY LTD is a Samoa-based ship owner and manager with a documented fleet of 1 vessel. Public maritime databases identify it as the registered owner and/or manager of the tanker FULGER (IMO 9326718), and it has also been cited in shadow-fleet screening materials. [1][3][4][6]
⚠ Red Flags

- Company appears in OpenSanctions person-of-interest context through its vessel FULGER.
- Limited public ownership transparency; beneficial ownership not identified in the available sources.

Ukrainian sanctions-related maritime records identify it as the ship safety management manager for at least two tanker vessels in the shadow-fleet dataset, indicating involvement in vessel management rather than a large diversified shipping group.
⚠ Red Flags
- Listed in Ukraine's shadow-fleet sanctions database as safety manager for sanctioned-linked vessels
- Small fleet size relative to involvement in high-risk tanker management
- Limited public ownership transparency in the available sources
