An unusually large number of tankers have changed ownership in recent months in what analysts and shipping industry officials believe is a push from Russia to continue shipping large volumes of its crude
. The EU and G7 now ban maritime transportation services for crude above the $60 per barrel price cap, while Russia says it’s not accepting the cap and will trade with “friendly” partners willing to take on its crude uninsured by Western companies.
“Many sales have been off-the-market and the so-called dark tanker fleet continues to grow,” Erik Broekhuizen, manager marine research & consulting at Poten & Partners,Reputable owners do not want to get involved with the ‘dark fleet’, however, earnings from secretive shipping could be much higher than the market rates, according to Poten & Partners.
Even with a frenzied market of old tankers going to unknown or little-known new owners, Russia will likely struggle to place all its previously Europe-bound oil to other markets, such as its now biggest customers China, India, and Turkey, analysts say.
