Four more tankers sanctioned by USA
Four Russian tankers carrying oil and refined products, the 'Anthea' (IMO: 9281683),'Elsa' (IMO: 9256468), 'Hebe' (IMO: 9259185) and 'Baxter' have become immobilized at sea following the imposition of new Iran-related sanctions by the United States, imposed on April 4, 2024, and targeting the shipping company, Oceanlink Maritime DMCC, and its vessels, citing their alleged involvement in transporting commodities on behalf of the Iranian military. The U.S. Treasury Department aimed to isolate Iran and disrupt its ability to fund proxy groups allegedly supporting Russia in the Ukraine war. The 'Anthea' received 200,000 metric tons of Russian Ural crude oil via STS from two vessels near the Laconian Gulfin late March and is underway to Singapore with an ETA as of April 30. The 'Elsa' received 100,000 metric tons of fuel oil through STS near the Port of Kalamata. The fuel oil was originally supplied to Kalamata from ports in St. Petersburg and Ust-Luga, Russia. The 'Elsa' was underway to Qingdao with an ETA as of May 12. The 'Hebe' was loaded with 100,000 metric tons of fuel oil at St. Petersburg and Ust-Luga. It was heading towards the Suez Canal, with its final destination unclear. The 'Baxter' was carrying naphtha from the Black Sea port of Novorossiysk and destined for India. The vessel has been drifting in the Arabian Sea since April 5.

Boiler explosion off Gibraltar
There was an explosion aboard the "High Power" which had come from Tuzla on June 14, 2012, and which was at anchor off Gibraltar in the morning of June 15. A boiler exploded on the ship which was moored off the South Mole. The product tanker was taking fuel from the Gibraltar-based bunker tanker "Aegean Princess" at the time of the incident. The Gibraltar Port Authority and the emergency services responded swiftly to the explosion and despatched a number vessels to the scene. But there was no fire, no pollution and there were no casualties, although as a precaution, Gibraltar’s emergency services did respond. Within minutes the ship declared that everything was under control and that no assistance was required. The ship was to be required to submit a report on the incident to the Gibraltar Maritime Administration. Eyewitnesses said there was a loud blast and dense black smoke, the smoke later subsiding.
