Satellite Data Reveals First Venezuela-Linked Tanker Seized by US is Now Off the Texas Coast.
American personnel roped onto the deck of the Skipper on December 10th.
Orbital data and vessel monitoring data has verified that the oil tanker Skipper – the first vessel seized by the US for allegedly transporting sanctioned crude from Venezuela – is now positioned near of Texas.
Vantor satellite imagery dated 21 December indicates the tanker is near Galveston, while AIS vessel-tracking data from MarineTraffic currently places the Skipper about 80km offshore.
The tanker Skipper was seized by American officials on 10 December and has been sanctioned by several nations. At the time it was intercepted, it was incorrectly sailing under the flag of the nation of Guyana.
This interception was succeeded by the interception of a second oil vessel, the Centuries tanker. This ship – in contrast to the Skipper – was not yet under sanctions when it was brought under American control.
American agencies are currently targeting a third such ship, which has been named by the maritime risk group Vanguard as the Bella 1. The US President said yesterday that “it will ultimately be secured”.
Writing on the social media platform X, the TankerTrackers group noted the vessel Bella 1 has been “underway for over a month” and, at an average speed of 11 knots, may have “approximately a month of fuel remaining unless her velocity decreases”.
The monitoring service added the tanker is “likely heading south-east towards the South African coast”.
