Ownership & Management
OCEAN VOYAGE CORP is a maritime ship owner/manager entity associated with the vessel BEAST. MagicPort describes it as a France-based ship owner and commercial manager with a fleet of one vessel, while OpenSanctions links the company to the IMO number 6386819 and flags it as a sanction-linked entity.[3][4]
⚠ Red Flags
- Listed by OpenSanctions as a sanction-linked entity.[4]
- BEAST is identified by Ukraine's War & Sanctions database as part of the shadow fleet.[7]
- Only one vessel is identified, which can be consistent with single-asset maritime structures, but this alone is not evidence of wrongdoing.[3]
TIDAL TECH MARINERS LLC is an Azerbaijan-based ship owner and manager identified by maritime intelligence sources as an ISM manager with a small tanker-focused fleet. The company is associated with vessel operations in multiple international ports and is reported to manage 3 vessels.[1][4]
⚠ Red Flags
- OpenSanctions association with 'shadow fleet' and 'regulator warning' tags in the entity record.[3]
- Small fleet size with tanker-only composition and all vessels reported as 15+ years old, which can be a risk indicator in sanctions/compliance screening.[1]
- No beneficial ownership information was identified in the supplied sources.
