German tanker keeps shipping russian oil from Novorossiysk – Klymenko

Do you know what is radio electronic warfare (REW) or GPS spoofing? No, you don’t know what it is. I also thought I knew. But in Romania and Germany there are people who know how and use it. It’s not just banal concentration lines. Several stations were involved in this case, including in the occupied territories of Crimea and the Kherson region, the co-founder and chief editor of the web portal blackseanews.net Andrii Klymenko wrote.

Why? To hide the direct route of the tanker ALTAI (Crude Oil Tanker) IMO: 9446427, owned by a German company from the port of Novorossiysk, Terminal “Sheskharis” to the Romanian port of Midia – UN/LOCODE: RO MID (Red line). These naive owners think that when they go to Romania, half the time from the Caspian Pipeline Consortium (CPC) (Caspian oil is not sanctioned), and the other half directly from the terminal “Sheskharis” (Transneft with russian oil), as they are now, they can hide what they are doing.

Friends who want to help and have a direct connection with the Embassy or the German Foreign Ministry – let them know about these “rationalizers”. Also, ask them to figure out why this German tanker has such a Siberian name. 😉

This is the following route:

Tanker – Altai (Crude Oil Tanker) IMO: 9446427, Flag (Marshall Islands), Call Sign V7XL4, MMSI 538004508, DWT115952, Year of Build2011

For those who are in doubt, I provide screenshots of a map.
