Three vessels – Nova Energy, Pioneer and Asya Energy – are anchored off the Russian coast due to problems finding buyers.

Sanctioned tankers carrying Russian liquefied natural gas (LNG) are being built off the Russian Far East coast, presenting difficulties in finding buyers under Western restrictions. This was reported by Bloomberg news agency on Wednesday, October 30.

The vessels Nova Energy, Pioneer and Asya Energy loaded cargo from the Arctic LNG 2 plant in northern Russia, which fell under US sanctions. The Pioneer is now anchored in the port of Nakhodka, and two other vessels are also nearby, according to ship tracking data.

The plant stopped producing natural gas in October of this year because Western sanctions limit its ability to deliver and sell cargo. Arctic LNG 2 shipments are offered to buyers in China and Asian countries at a discount.

Three vessels, controlled through opaque structures and believed to be part of the so-called “shadow” fleet, are under US sanctions. The restrictions eliminated the project of new specialized ice-class vessels.

Meanwhile, the Russian ship Star will not be able to deliver a domestic ice-class main tanker for Arctic LNG 2 by the end of this year. Russian newspaper Kommersant reported this on Wednesday. Deliveries are expected in early 2025.

As we have already written, sanctions have cooled the construction of LNG plants by Russian Novatek.
