Ownership & Management
ALEXANDER TANKERS SHIPPING CORP. is a Marshall Islands-based maritime company identified as the ship owner for the tanker ALEXANDER/ALIMEDON in maritime sanctions-related records. It appears to function as a vessel-owning entity within a tanker ownership/management structure rather than as a large diversified shipping group.
⚠ Red Flags
- Listed as ship owner for a vessel appearing in sanctions/shadow-fleet related records
- Marshall Islands offshore registration with limited transparency on ownership
- Single-vessel ownership structure indicated by available records
Executive Ship Management Pte Ltd is a Singapore-based ship management company headquartered at 78 Shenton Way and identified by IMO company number 1834165. Publicly available records show it serves as ISM/safety management or technical manager for multiple vessels, including the tanker ALEXANDER (IMO 9826720), and it states that it has offices in multiple cities worldwide.
⚠ Red Flags
- Named by Ukrainian war-sanctions authorities in connection with shadow-fleet vessels
- Canadian administrative enforcement action in 2024 for a pollution/dangerous chemicals compliance violation
- Fleet associated with a vessel structure involving separate owner and commercial manager entities for ALEXANDER
- Shared Singapore corporate address used by maritime companies
SEALION TANKERS INC is a maritime ship management company based at 107 Vouliagmenis Avenue, Athens, Greece, identified in maritime databases as a commercial manager. Public vessel records link it to crude oil tanker operations, including management of the vessel ALEXANDER.
⚠ Red Flags
- Listed in shadow-fleet/sanctions-related maritime databases
- Commercial manager of crude oil tankers linked to Russian crude trade
- Uses a single office address for tanker management and correspondence
- Corporate structure relies on single-ship owning entities rather than an identified operating parent
