SanctionsNone found in the materials reviewed.

⚠ Red Flags

  • Shared maritime address used by multiple entities in Glyfada/Athens.
  • KAROLOS records show a management split between INTERGRADE LTD (registered owner/ISM manager) and Dynacom Tankers Management Ltd. (commercial manager), which is common in shipping but relevant for due diligence.[1][2]
🏢

Beneficial OwnerThe company is reported in recent reporting as being owned by Greek shipping magnate George Procopiou. It is also described as founded in 1991 and linked to a broader corporate group established in 1974, but no fully verified corporate ownership chain was found in the available sources.
SanctionsNo direct international sanctions listing was found. However, Ukraine's NACP included Dynacom Tankers Management Ltd among five Greek shipping companies temporarily suspended from the "international sponsors of war" list in September 2023, and later reporting in August 2026 stated the company was restored to that list after alleged non-compliance with agreed conditions.

⚠ Red Flags

  • Named by Ukraine's NACP in connection with the "international sponsors of war" list and later reported as restored after alleged non-compliance.
  • Reported ownership/control by George Procopiou places the company within a large private shipping group, but the exact beneficial ownership structure is not fully transparent from the available sources.
  • A Liberian registration profile and Greek operating address suggest a multi-jurisdiction corporate structure that may warrant enhanced due diligence.
