A “ghost fleet” tasked with circumventing sanctions on Russian oil
Despite cooperation between London and its allies on sanctions against Russia after its invasion of Ukraine, Moscow is increasing the means to circumvent them, in particular thanks to the formation of a “ghost fleet of tankers”, according to a British parliamentary report published Wednesday. “179 full tankers from the Russian ghost fleet left Russian ports in November 2023,” says the Kiev-based Ukrainian economic institute KSE in its December “Russian Oil Tracker” report. As of October 2023, the shadow fleet enabled the export of around 2.3 million barrels per day of crude oil and 800,000 barrels per day of petroleum products, according to the KSE institute.
