The ship left the Baltic Sea port of Primorsk on Sunday with about 730,000 barrels of Urals oil and is now on its way to the Chinese port of Zhoushan.

The tanker “Viktor Bakaev” with a cargo of Russian oil went to China, which tested the effectiveness of the G7 sanctions aimed at limiting the Russian oil fleet. Bloomberg reported this on Wednesday, July 24.

Tanker owned by Russian state-owned PJSC Sovcomflotis the fourth vessel to be sanctioned and is testing the decision of the international community.

The ship left the Baltic Sea port of Primorsk on Sunday carrying about 730,000 barrels of Urals oil. It was reported that the tanker was on its way to the Chinese port of Zhoushan.

This is the fourth tanker launched by Russia after a long period of inactivity. The number of sanctioned vessels rose to 62 last week when Britain imposed restrictions on 11 tankers.

Satellite images show three Sovcomflot pre-tankers transshipping at sea without being detected by digital ship tracking systems.

The publication stated that the more Russia manages the deployment of ships, the less destructive the sanctions will be.

We reported that the first Russian oil tanker under US sanctions secretly transferred oil to another ship off the coast of Singapore.

It was previously reported that disagreements remain among EU countries over measures aimed at Russia’s so-called “shadow fleet”, that is, semi-legal oil tankers. Greece, Cyprus and Malta opposed such measures, arguing that they would only lead to shipping operators taking even more opaque measures.
