The dark fleet of Iran, Russia and Venezuela has reached nearly 1,000 ships
Bloomberg reported in a new report that nearly 978 tankers are operating in the so-called “dark fleet,” a network that supports oil exports from Iran, Venezuela and Russia and accounts for about 19 percent of the global fleet. The data comes as a large tanker was seized near Venezuela, which was previously under U.S. sanctions for its involvement in transporting Iranian oil.
According to Energy Press, Bloomberg News reported that the fleet supporting crude oil exports from Venezuela, Iran and Russia, which it called the dark fleet, is about 978 vessels, which is equivalent to approximately 19% of the world’s total tanker fleet.
The United States recently seized a large tanker in waters near Venezuela, which was previously sanctioned by the United States under the name Adisa in 2022 for illegal shipments of oil related to Iran.
Bloomberg reported that the tanker had made two sea transfers of Iranian oil earlier this year, destined for China.
