Russia has created a shadow fleet to transport Russian oil.
The shadow fleet consists of old tankers with complex ownership structures that often falsify their coordinates during voyages.
These ships often do not have insurance from reputable British insurers, and some have no insurance at all.
Without insurance and facing sanctions, these vessels are barred from some ports, leading them to conduct oil transfers at sea.
The shadow fleet helps Russia maintain its oil exports worldwide, particularly to China and India .
Through the shadow fleet, Russia can bypass restrictions and present its oil as originating from other sources.
Oil and gas revenues currently make up at least a third of Russia ’s budget, roughly equivalent to what it plans to spend on the war in 2024 .
